This program is excellent for a small addition to your Windows computer. Crimson Editor for Windows allows the user to use programming languages such as HTML, C/C++, Perl and Java. You can also use it for things like a notepad as well.

Crimson Editor is a text editor used for many programming languages, as it supports syntax for various different ones such as HTML, C and Java. This is a great application for coding as it has powerful tools while also being a really lightweight program which opens really quickly. The color highlighting is just what a programmer would need and it has all the essentials for coding.

This seems like a basic HTML editor, as I am not a programmer I don't see much use in this.

Crimson Editor is a fast and relatively small-sized source code editor for windows. Not only will it just serve as an alternative to Notepad, but Crimson Editor also has additions to optimize code editing for some of the most popular programming languages, like HTML, C/C++, Java and Perl. Further, it allows you to optimize your code editing process with features like spell checker and customizable macros that can help you save time.                        

Murray

This is like an editor but they are having so many cool extra features. I found this one so helpful so you can try it too. I am recommending this one.

Another text editor for essential HTML coding by coders and programmers. It's very handy to tag along while coding with its ease of use. It has a fast loading time but very small in size. it is not a buggy kind of software that takes more time to load. If you are into coding, you can check it out for a better experience.                        

Ben

This program is so helpful for coding. The syntax highlighting, spell check, and built-in calculator with mathematical functions make its super easy for text editing. And the fact that it's free is a bonus.

This is the one source editor software for Windows.
The software is very small in size and it very quickly.
It is actually a good replacement for notepad 
Few features of this software are spell checking, undo/redo mode, syntax highlighting and auto-indentation.
It supports syntax highlighting for many file formats.
This has a built-in Calculator and we can do basic mathematics and date functions.
So one con I can say is that this software sometimes crashes.
