I use npp as an all-around lightweight tool for opening any kind of file with text in it. I don't usually don't want to open a full blown editor when all I need is to look or tweak a few things. Also npp simply persists the files instead of asking me if I want to save the file every time.
That is of course, if I don't already have a code editor open. Either way I tend to prefer editing text that is unrelated to the code outside of the code editor just to keep it clean.
