Hi, Have you tried Visual Studio Code (which is totally different from Visual Studio)? Sometimes it's a bit strange to switch between forms/web mode, which is required since this is app is built with web technology, but overall I find it a quite pleasant experience.

Hi,
I also am interested in this topic. Most of the recommended editors sublime comes immediately to mind, is not accessible.

Hi,What about trying something like UltraEdit? It was less verbose, but also a bit sluggish. This seems to be a difficult area to get accessible.Rajiv

Hi,
I am in a real quandary about which best editor to use going forward on Windows.
I try to use Visual Studio more, but find it a real pane in most circumstances, it tries to do too much and causes problems, and is fairly slow.
Notepad++ is my main editor but I really hate it for most things, can't work out why but I don't trust it in some circumstances, and hate the way it keeps files open.
I would ideally use Sublime Text or similar but all the popular editors don't seem to work well with JFW at the moment.

Just a side question that may be off-topic for the list: a recent discussion related to my work has raised the question of which accessible editors are best for creating and modifying HTML and XML documents extensively. My suggestion would be nxml-mode under Emacs, which, given a schema, supports code completion and validation. However, I'm sure there are other options, and as I'm gathering recommendations for at least one friend/colleague and not merely choosing what to use myself, I would be interested in your suggestions.
One of the challenges raised during the conversation that I had was that it can be difficult to read and edit the text with a screen reader when all of the markup is spoken; so the ability to hide the markup temporarily would be useful. Of course, a braille display (which is what I use) would help here, but even with that advantage, the markup can be quite verbose. An option considered in the discussion is to write documents in a simpler markup language such as Markdown, and then convert them, but this isn't ideal - especially if you need fine control over the HTML or XML itself.
