skedit on mac is pretty sweet.

vim (http://www.vim.org/) is the best really

i use komodo edit for php and perl, its auto-completion is awesome.

I've been trying out Komodo also. I quite like it's style but here are a few annoyances about it such as the technicalities of the syntax-highlighting.

Still a nice interface, though.

I'm surprised no one uses vim, imho. Here, I'll do some advocating. This is how my setup looks.

It's a modal text editor, meaning you can do crazy stuff with just pressing a few keys and it's customizable as hell. For instance, if I want to delete 3 words I just type in d3w or if I want to copy the next 4 lines I type in 4yy. You move up, down, left and right with the h j k l keys. It also has advanced stuff like if you want to delete all lines that are blank you just type in :%g/^$/d

Nice, what colours scheme are you using? Also, do you know how to (un)indent blocks of text?

I'd have to say Emacs (http://gnu.org/software/emacs), partly because it's so much better than vim ;) and partly because it's what I use..

If your on OS X I recommend Coda (http://www.panic.com/coda/). Really good application. You have to pay for it, but they have a 30 day trial :)
