Notepad++ - always been free, clean, and drastically better than Notepad:
Notepad++ is a free (as in “free speech” and also as in “free beer”) source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed by GNU General Public License.
I’ve got one piece of software at work on a Windows server that has some special encoding(?) voodoo with “encrypted” (rather masked/obscured) passwords in the config file that always causes the config to break if I edit (save) them with Notepad++. In all other regards, it’s perfect and a solid choice for almost any case where you need an editor for text files.
