5 stars
Version: NoteTab Pro 4.95
"Excellent text editor; I use it many times daily."
Pros: Very flexible. Tabbed interface supports multiple open files. Can hide nicely in SysTray when minimized. Good support for html tags. Easy to add user extensions. Well supported. Automatic capture from Windows clipboard. Fine spell checker. Plain and regular-expression searches. Auto launch a browser by clicking URL in text. Supports Windows, DOS, Mac, Unix, and EBCDIC text files. Many pre-written specialized extension packages available.
Cons: Doesn't handle unicode. Incremental improvements on hold awaiting major re-write. Macro language is very complex, though powerful. Won't handle single lines (logical paragraphs) longer than 32K. No way to edit binary files.

I also use NoteTab Pro quite a lot. Two or three years ago I would have given it 5 stars; but the inability to handle UTF-8 strikes me as a pretty serious limitation nowadays, and the 32K paragraph limit has forced me to use other editors on a number of occasions.
