Where can I find a good C editor (free)

Hello,

    I need a free C/C++ editor with syntax highlighting and a good interface 
to make utility. I appreciate your help on introducing me one. I am using 
ScrEdit now, but I think thee should be some more sophisticated one around.



Best regards

I like vim for basic editing.

You're on Windows?  Crimson Editor is quite simple, but it has all the 
essentials (and syntax highlighting).  You may also want to try Eclipse 
-- I haven't tried it, but it's supposed to be the Next Big Thing.

Get Linux - it's all free there.

EMACS is available for windows and does c-mode highlighting quite
nicely.

EMACS works quite nicely under various flavours of UNIX, and used to
be my preferred text editor. When I tried to install it under windows,
it performed as if powered by a steam engine. Did I do something wrong
or is it really so awfully slow when run under windows?

I don't know about emacs, but xemacs works perfectly fine under
Windoze as well as reasonable operating systems :).

It starts up a little slowly, but when it's up and running I don't
notice any delays.

Rune, Maybe your (emacs) load path (i.e., the one that
searches for packages) has gotten disconbobulated?
