Any (decent) .aspx editors out there yet?

Just starting to poke at ASPX for the first time, and already I am tired of
Notepad...does anyone know of a tool/editor that would be a reasonable
alternative? Maybe a third party has gotten something out?

One trick is to fool Visual Interdev to recognize .aspx pages as an
ASP page. It doesn't give you the full features of that an ASP+ editor
should, but it sure beats Notepad.

If you save the following text (between but not including the BEGIN and END
Line) into a vbs.reg file and double click on it, it will register .aspx as
a valid extension for Visual Interdev. Please note that this has worked for
me on WinNT 4.0 and Win2K and I make no guarantees. As always, when editing
the registry, be careful.

--BEGIN--
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\6.0\Editors\{C76D83F8-A4
89-11D0-8195-00A0C91BBEE3}\Extensions]

You must must try textpad. www.textpad.com. There are syntax colouring files
avilable as add on's and code snippits (must be downloaded ). Very lean (as
fast as notepad). Its shareware
