I use GNU Emacs as my text editor. It's old and crusty, but I love it. It's missing some features compared to some of the newer IDE type editors that have access to the symbol tables from compilation, and it's ludicrous that we're still using text files for programs, but it serves me well, and the complete programmability is awesome.

Here is my .emacs file. I'm actually trying to move back towards the default key bindings so that I can just use an empty .emacs when I have to, but I do make ctrl-; act like ctrl-x do my left hand doesn't fall apart from RSI. And, of course, you have to remap caps lock and ctrl.
