Windows editors bite.

I would use RHIDE but it's too much to bother learning all that, it
seems to have ripped off too much of the unnecessary part of Borland's
IDE. I did use Turbo C for a brief period but I grew up using Vi. If
you want to write C, there's nothing more powerful than Vi. Except
Emacs, possibly. If RHIDE did Vi key-commands that might be a
different story.
