"Used often, works well"
Pros: Recommended for experienced programmers, webpage designers, etc. tired of using notepad to view source code (html, css, java, etc). It colors certain words for easy viewing. Works with multiple programming/scripting languages (see their webpage for add-ons). It doesn't modify your html code with garbage (a lot of other software do). The side navigation bar means you don't have to leave the program to find another file to open. Since everything is kept in tabs at the top, your source code files stay organized and are easy to access. Provides you with line & column #s for debugging. Easy commenting and smart indenting. Plus many more features.
Cons: Every so often you may find that something is not colored when it should be. (Seldom is it ever colored wrong). It doesn't support every scripting language, and sometimes has trouble detecting the uncommon languages (ASM, Matlab). This is not a compile anything/everything program, for good reasons.
