PSPad text and code editor with a difference
Colin 
Came across this little program that might be a great help for anyone who wants to tweak or do little changes to their blog or website. The main difference with this editor is that you can change a file while it is still on your server. So no more having to open up your favorite ftp program, download the file you want to change, modify it and then upload again to your server via the ftp program. Here are some of the features as listed by http://www.pspad.com/en/ where you can also download the program from…

Nice! I have been using a plugin for notepadd++ to edit files on the server, but its not very dependable. Thanks for the tip.
