I use 
Context together with ExamDiff, ExamDiff is a freeware Visual "Unix Diff" tool, 
it allows you to configure context as the editor for AFL files. You can download 
it from <A 
href="">http://www.prestosoft.com/ps.asp?page=edp_examdiff
I however 
havent been able to configure ExamDiff to load context with the correct file. If 
anybody got it working, can you let me know.

  >Well, 
    I was just getting used to NoteTab Light as my editor, mainly becauseof 
    its file-compare utility. (It is also free, does regular 
    expressionsearches even across files; but it did not appear to be able 
    to do AFL colorcoding and is more for HTML than any other language I 
    think)And then Dave was kind enough to enable ConTEXT to do the 
    color coding...soI am trying that out. (It's also free, claims to do the 
    regular expressionsearches, but, so far I haven't seen a file-compare 
    utility)And now dingo enables AFL color coding for TextPad...I used 
    it a couple ofyears ago and liked it a lot, but it was not free ($27 I 
    believe) and when Iupgraded computers and asked to move my license, they 
    found no record of mypurchase...So what editor do you all like 
    and why?And will it do:    file 
    comparing    regular-expression search/replace across 
    files    AFL color 
    coding?thanks-johnSend
