I would say; anything moving on from notepad. Syntax highlighting
should be available along with automatic code indenting, regular
expression based search and replace (preferably across multiple
(hundreds of) files) and probably some form of automatic insertion of
predefined, regularly used, code structures. All of those can be found
in free (and/or very inexpensive) text editors.
You can go from something as
complex as notepad to something as 'advanced' as Dreamweaver MX.

from the optimal and should be vehemently discouraged.

and complete development interface I've ever used.
Unless you are under the egregiously mistaken assumption that everyone who
uses anything other than Notepad must do their web development via WYSIWIG?
