Used Akelapad for more than 10 years, mainly due to its feature of cross-split-screen-view of same file.
Recently tried to find an analogue and it's actually appeared to be a unique feature - only Sublime has similar ability. But damn, 70Mb just for an ability to have 4 vertical split-views is kinda not worth it. So if anybody knows a small text editor that allows to view same file in 4 vertical split-screens, please let me know.

2 or 3 yrs ago I switched to VS Code after using UltraEdit Studio for 10+yrs. It's great modularity (or extendeability) make it possible to tune it for different languages and/or environments. And, BTW, split views of the same file are also doable.

VSCode with neovim is really nice (although im using it under a Mac now).

Still haven't made the switch, still relying too much on Sublime Text with all the nice addons :ninja:

I guess you're using many homegrown addons? ;)

Only 2 or 3. Mainly for being able to call specific help topics for AHK / XY / etc. right from the cursor position
