[SLUG] recommendations for a text editor for programming

[john at johnallsopp.co.uk]

Hiya

What text editors do you use for programming?

I used to use and like TexPad. Emacs for Gnome seems a bit hairy. I
don't want to keep flicking back to the console as I have that bug
where sometimes when I come back to graphics there's nothing, just a
blank screen. So something in Gnome would be cool. Line numbers, split
screen, a sensible tab indent, that sort of thing.

Cheers
