Every self-taught programmer I've seen starts off hacking at something in Notepad.
I started with mIRC script editor, which was only a tiny step above notepad.
I upgraded to notepad++ I'll have you know!
I spent years using Notepad++ as my professional editor. We were a Windows shop and all of the IDEs available were much slower and buggier. It’s a surprisingly decent introduction to the idea of what a good text editor can be.
