Editing Your Scipt - What to use?

Unity Engine
1

Hi,

I was just wondering what programs people use to edit script. Is it important to pick
a program?
While I’ve been learning programming I’ve been using notepad in order to edit my scripts.
Is this bad?
By the way, is there a program that is provided that deals with 2d sprites?

Thanks in advanced.

MonoDevelop is pretty good and comes installed with Unity if you let it. Notepad++ is another decent free alternative, if you don’t like the Scite editor that comes installed with Unity if you opt out of MonoDevelop.

Visual Studio 2008 and Resharper is best, but sets you back about $1300.

i use notepad++ (opensource).
it’s very good editor for programmers.

Check out gimp (http://www.gimp.org/) for 2d editing. Nice free package.
