The editor I use when I’m on windows by accident but still have to look at some text files real quick.

Just in case, Kate is available on windows nowadays.

Emacs is, too, but I don’t bother having a proper editor set up. I won’t develop anything on that machine anyways.

There's an open source Linux reimplementation called Notepad Next.

Though the application overall is stable and usable, it should not be considered safe for critically important work. There are numerous bugs and half working implementations. Pull requests are greatly appreciated.

Not very reassuring.

My favourite replacements are SciTE, Mousepad, JuffEd, and Geany

Edit: Take your pick!

Aurix ,

JuffEd looks from the screenshots as the closest one.
