Geany http://www.geany.org/ is small, fast, and has the basic features I need.
It has syntax highlighting for everything from Assembly to Latex, Java, C, C++, HTML, you name it.
And (very important) it stays the hell out of my face and just lets me do the job. I love it.

As I once wrote to my bank: "I'll switch banks before I switch browsers".
