Any real life code program gets to be quite big and help is needed in any editor to make navigation through the code easy. Some of the things one can do with this application are as follows. First is a customizable menus and keyboard mapping. Fonts, colors, screen layout, and toolbar`s can be changed from one easy interface. Most dialogs are also resizable. A bookmark feature helps ease the transition between editing positions in a file. Jumping back and forth between different positions becomes effortless. Code sections not to be reviewed can be collapsed to make browsing easier. Tags & functions can be collapsed too but that depends on language feature.

Cons: No negatives found.

Overall: This is an amazing multi environment code editor, qualifies for 5 stars very easily.
