Hello All,
Wonder if somebody has found (created) one decent text editor
with basic features such as Syntax Highlighting for writing Gap

Thank you,

In case you work under Unix, there's always emacs. There is (or used to
be) a GAP mode for emacs in the etc directory of the distribution. It
included features such as automatic indenting, which worked correctly most
of the time. I added some basic highlighting support (also buggy), but I
never distributed it. Contact me if you're interested.

For other operating systems: Emacs is supposed to be available at least
under Windows, but installing it just for editing GAP files might be kind
of an overkill.
