OK, I have a guy that I want to convert over to Linux but one of the programs
that he uses a lot is called 'editpad Pro'.  The features he likes are the
multiple file tabs across the top, the syntax highlighting and the ability to
save files in Linux, DOS, MAC and other formats.

Is there anything in Linuxland that does everything that editpad pro does? 
I've looked at GEdit which has the tabs but not the highlighting, Kate that
does the highlighting but not the tabs (Although it does have a sidebar that
has the same function but not the look), CoolEdit is cool but it uses several
captive windows inside a main, rather than tabs, Kwrite makes new windows for
each file instead of tabs, Kedit is too basic, Gvim is WAY cool for VI
affectionados like myself, xedit bites...

There's gotta be something out there...

Thanks.

Cheers!

Bob
