Good Text Editor... ?

[SnowLeopard2008]

Does anyone know of a simple, yet powerful, and very light text editor for Windows? I'm not talking about Word, just a small program like notepad, but with syntax highlighting, since I'm programming with it. Something simplistic but has great features. Anyone know of something like that? thanks!

gvim for windows

Just like vim only gui-fied...learn it once and use it on any platform (take that last part with a grain of salt)

Lots of options with it:
spell check,
syntax highlighting
line numbers
auto complete
folding
file browser
etc

Several editors out there, for all tastes, just google for it.
As Notepad replacement I use the free Metapad, fastest one that I know.

Another vote for Notepad++. Great program.

thanks for all the suggestions, I did google but didn't like what I saw, so I thought maybe someone in these forums knew of a a lightweight, simple editor.
