For eons (going back to DOS) I've used MultiEdit. Works in text or hex,
handles large files, etc.

We use the free text editor ConText which can

. handle large files
. save with CRLF or LF which is essential for *IX .sh scripts
. colors your code if doing perl, or other languages

This is a great replacement for the woefully inadequate notepad.
