For plain text (including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc. if you know the 
syntax) I recommend Vim, which knows (and respects) the difference 
between "dos" ends of lines (CR+LF, or ^M^J) and "unix" ones (LF only, 
or ^J). Vim is charityware (if you like it, you are requested to make a 
donation to a certain schooling project in Uganda; but no obligation) 
and open-source; it runs on many operationg systems including Windows, 
Unix, Linux, Mac OS X, and more, from some smartphones to IBM zOS 
mainframes.

For Windows, an up-to-date version can be obtained at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cream/files/Vim/ -- As you can see from 
that page, it is frequently updated (almost every week).

See also its home site at http://www.vim.org, where links to other 
useful resources can be found.

If you've never used Vim before, you should start with its tutorial (by 
running "vimtutor" after installing Vim), to familiarize yourself with 
how to use it.


Best regards,
Tony.
