"Can't do a basic search/replace nor copy/paste"
Version: UltraEdit-32 12.2
Pros
No time to waste exploring this useless to me plethora of commands. I want it just to do simple things properly...
Cons
... and it doesn't : simple things like a copy/pasting from hex code display to search field are impossible : you have to enter all by hand and you have no room for a substantial block of code.

"Fantastic Editor"
Version: UltraEdit-32 12.2
Pros
There's only a few reasons I use Dreamweaver, and that is for site management - easy access to all files on the site, with integrated FTP, and extras like Mass Find & Replace on multiple files. Now I've finally found an alternative!
I was able to quickly download this 8mb program, install it within a minute, and create a new 'Project'. I made an FTP account, and linked that to the folder where I store my website locally. Now I can easily edit any file on the site, then right click --> upload when done.
UltraEdit-32 also provides all the functions I need for mass find & replacing code in my files, easy to read & edit syntax highlighting colours, and tons of other options which you would expect from an editor like this.
I shouldn't compare to dreamweaver as that is a full-featured WYSIWYG package, but previously that was the only program I could use to easily edit lots of files on my site at once. Now I can use UltraEdit, at a MUCH lower price and with much less bloat. The extra features in this make my work so much easier than with other text editors. All the options are very daunting at first, but take out time to configure it to your needs, edit settings etc & you'll love it. The free trial is 45 days long! Once that's up I will probably buy it. A fantastic editor for coders. Check out their site for a full feature list.
Cons
Lots of features which to me seem unnecessary, and that I have no idea what they do. Very daunting to look at at first and not at all friendly. However, it was easy to customise the toolbars to add just those I need, and remove the others. Everything is customisable, even the keyboard shortcuts. Now it's perfect for my needs.
No WYSIWYG, but I don't use that anyway - hate the things. This is a program for text/code editing.
RAM usage seems a little high, but it's not causing any problems for me speed-wise.
