Best Free Windows Text Editor

The best Free as in Freedom (GNU GPL) licensed text editor I have found for Windows is Notepad++

Like WinClam, it is designed for use on USB sticks - there is an option in the standard installed to not use the %APPDIR% environment variable and use the directory it is run from to store preferences.

    Rubbish! Everyone knows gVim is the way forward - even on Windoze!

    Sorry Chris, I want something barebones, with a simple GUI.
