I'll second this.  UltraEdit is a very good editor, and IMO fantastic value
($35). Start using it and you'll never want to use the MPLAB editor again.

Scott Newell has also written a small (shareware) utility called "build.exe"
which enabled you to invoke the MPLAB build from an external program (such
as UltraEdit).   This allows you to use the project manager and build
facility of MPLAB, but edit and compile through UltraEdit with ease.  Take
alook at http://www.workingtex.com/htpic/PIC_tips_5.asp for details.
