text editor
I started a new job and the company is on XP. I always used a Mac and have been spoiled by TextMate. What would everyone recommend is a good free / inexpensive text editor for PHP development on XP?
Thank you in advance.

Try reading the What's your favorite PHP editor mega-thread.
Extremely Lightweight: Notepad
Very Lightweight (but powerful): Notepad2
Lightweight and powerful: Notepad++
Powerful, feature rich, a little heavier but not by much: PSPad & EditPLus
Total top of the line IDE: Eclipse with the PHPEclispe plugin
All of these are free, install very easy are insanely easy to use. On any given day I will have three of these open at one time (Right now it is Notepad2, Notepad++ and PSPad).
