John fucking Carmack codes in Microsoft Visual Studio, and that's the guy who wrote Doom, the single most important piece of software in history of Man and I'm not even exaggerating.

He doesn't develop text editors, so he uses what's popular. That's what most people do.

So what would you use if you developed text editors?

And as a side note, would would you use for html and php?

IntelliJ suite for web development. Its a little resource heavy, but has all the features baked in.
