Your editor seems popular, free, cross-platform and capable ... if you
already know it well, I can't see why you should switch.

Unless you're truly not productive in SciTE, but I'd have to watch
you use it for hours to tell.

(That should really be a new job title. Just as there are aerobics
instructors or whatever at the gyms to help you use the equipment
there safely and efficiently, there should be text editor instructors!)
