I'm on the Notepad-Dreamweaver bandwagon. I use Notepad for quick edits and Dreamweaver for more extensive work especially when I want to use the "Split" view.
For raw HTML and other text editing, I really like TextPad. It's simple yet powerful.
Good tool. Used to be my fav (with notepad) but it's been replaced by Notepad ++. Like how it can handle a lot of things and format XML pretty well for editing.
Brian Batt got me hooked on Notepad++ for xml editing. I found Dreamweaver doesn't always save xml in the right format (unless I'm missing a preference/option?)

Depends on my mood . . .

Notepad all the way! I still write websites using it!!!
Notepad++ is my weapon of choice. Delightfully easy to use, and the sophisticated "find and replace" feature is super useful
Still prefer using the defunct HomeSite+ ...which means I have to keep a copy of my Macromedia Studio MX 2004 CD and serial number
But I'll use Notepad++ in a pinch.
