Here's a few that I've used before: Aptana Studio (Has FTP and Text Editing, if that's what you're looking for) Notepad++ (Super Awesome Windows Text Editor) Sublime Text 2 (Awesome Text Editor) WinSCP (Pretty good FTP Client) Filezilla (Another FTP Client)
@ChristopherBurton -- competitive or not, Sublime SFTP is a great plug-in -- easy to set up and use, with many nice options. It is a boon for ST IMO and I find the $16 price reasonable for the functionality added.
When I used Windows I loved Notepad++. There is also a really cool editor in the making that I love called InType. Although it falls short because it's missing some functionality. It's just so pretty! http://inotai.com/intype/
I'm used to Notepad++ and FlashFXP in Windows.Notepad++ is nice to those who like to click around(normally in Windows),as well as those who love keyboard shortcuts.
I tried several editors / IDEs recently and the best free one I found is Netbeans.
FTP is integrated since it is an IDE. It has a lot more features which you might not need initially but which might turn out to be useful once you try them.
Sublime Text 2 has some sort of "infinite trial", but it is not free (and apparently you are supposed to pay for some plugins also)
I still stick by Komodo Edit and Komodo IDE. You'll struggle to find a difference between them, but the Edit version is free, its always baffled me why i upgrades to the IDE since i have never found anything that i couldn't do in Edit.

I love Codelobster ( http://www.codelobster.com )
Sublime has a plugin for FTP but it's a trial. $16 or something for the full version which doesn't seem to be competitive.
I am absolutely loving Sublime Text 2. I never liked Notepad++.
why do you like Sublime Text 2 more than Notepad++

I use Notepad++, it's a very flexible text editor but it doesn't highlight a few css properties.

I'm using Notepad++, too. It's simply great, and you can expand it with highlighting for LESS and SASS as well.
Notepad++ and Filezilla. If you go with N++ checkout the plugins and customization it is hard to beat.
Also if you are getting into SASS then checkout Scout for SASS
I'd be curious to know how many of the Notepad++ fans have used Sublime Text 2. I've used both, and ST2 wins it hands down for me.
Sublime text 2 is great, really user friendly and its free!
Sublime Text 2 FTW!!!!!
@AdamHodgson Actually, it's not free. Please pay for it if you plan on continuing to use it!
