For me, it's the only *correctly working* Unicode-supported text
editor with sufficient syntax-highlighting. You can get a free
academic license if you're a student or faculty member.

I must admit that I choose it because its Unicode support, because I
need to edit some Python scripts with many UTF-8 strings inside, and I
also often use Chinese & Japanese IME to input those texts.

Originally I tried VIM 6.1's Unicode support (VIM is my favorite
editor, too.), however it just doesn't work right (Have some codepage
conversion & text-display problems). At the end, I switched to
EmEditor to edit my all Python scripts.

If VIM have better Unicode in the future, I might switch back ;)
