I'd use TeXworks as the editor
So would I, except that TeXWorks is not as rich in the features I'd like, nor does it handle arabic-script as well as needed. Believe me, I've looked at just about every option out there :-) The functionality I can extract from Npp gives a pedagogical advantage that's important for what I'm trying to achieve. For example, dbl-click a word and get a context-menu that allows you to tag that word without typing braces. I can even assign a shortcut so that I can tag a word and, eg, emphasize it without typing. Or type a ConTeXt command and get a list of options so you don't have to look at the manual. As a a pedagogical tool for newcomers Npp has things like this. Techies can of course choose what suits them. But I want to be able to tell my classes: "All assignments must be done in ConTeXt" and make it easy for them to do that. We're not at that point yet but that's the holy grail.
