Coding in notepad?

I have been told it is better to code in notepad rather than a text editor like JCreator.





Just wanted a few opinions on why this has been said?Coding in notepad?
JCreator is not a text editor. It is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). IDE's generally shield the programmer from a lot of behind the scenes stuff, like managing the classpath or package management. Generally, it is recommended that you learn to do this yourself while you are learning to program. Once you understand the fundamentals, then it's OK to use IDE related shortcuts. That being said, there is no reason that you couldn't use JCreator or NetBeans or Eclipse, as long as you understand what the IDE is doing behind the scenes.Coding in notepad?
Notepad is definitely the best, as it is the most versatile editor of all. You can save a file with any extension there is, and also edit different types of files, like HTML, CSS, Javascript and PHP. JCreator has a limited amount of documents or file extensions that it can read.


Better than Notepad, though is Notepad++ --- it was designed for coding. It is even better in that is seperates tags and groups all elements together. Search it up on Google to download it.
wrong, notepad lacks many features that make coding comfortable, let me take some example:


- line number


- text ident


- Compiler separate from editor, really bad


- Syntax checker


...





I don't why the heck someone have to tell such a whoax like that, notepad is the easiest way but not the best. It sucks, and for mid-size or big project avoid at all cost using notepad.





notepad++ or notepad2 are better version of notepad, but nothing compare to a real editor like JCreator, plus JCreator is an IDE for java do not expect to use it to compile other language.
yes.definitely its a best editor.bcoz u can give it n save it with any extensié…¶n...
