Spec me a programmers editor

[leezer3]

Right, well I need a new editor
Currently using Notepad++, and I'm getting more and more peeved with it. The tab/ window code isn't working well with two monitors and far too many tabs. It also keeps lunching my settings for no discernable reason. Basically, I need these features:
1. Decent multiple tab (30+) and window (4+) handling, across two monitors and session restoration.
2. Custom highlighters support (On of the things I'm working on is stuff for a train-sim, which uses text based files extensively)
3. Regex support.

Payware welcome as well as free

Must admit to being a little shocked.
Just been playing with the trials of Ultraedit & Editpad Pro-
Neither supports multiple windows with tabs in each nicely. It's ridiculous, all I want to do is drag a tab to create a new window once in a while
My webbrowser has done this for years, and Notepad++ does it iffily for free.

Komodo Edit is more promising, but bloated as anything

If we're talking console editors, I'll usually use nano. Don't much care for vim

In other news, I've found (yet) another annoying as hell bug in Notepad++. For some reason, don't ask me why the User Language dialog scrollbars have gone walkies, so I can't edit my existing highlighters properly in a nice GUI

Notepad++ does the tab drag thing fine for me.

Yes, but it's the details that count
Basiclly, these are the problems with the multi-monitor code:
* It will always default to the position and monitor on which a window was last created when closed and re-opened.
* Doesn't handle opening/ restoring multiple windows- Just closes one at a time until none are left. The last to close is always the one restored.
* New files opened will always open in the last active window- Needs a default window/ monitor setting.
* You can't drag a new file into it's own window until you've saved it.

It's also not very happy when you start chucking round huge amounts of stuff either.

Finally, I've no idea why it keeps lunching my configurations, but thats an absolute pain to put right when it does.
