DOS ain't dead

Which text editor do you use for dos programming? (Developers)

I just find the code easier to read in VisualC, Dev-CPP or Code::Blocks than in DOS text based editors. This due to the fonts used instead of 8bit fonts.

On the other hand I am not familiar with all the editors you mentioned and will take a look at them before starting to port FlDev. Currently I work on a different project though.
