Visual Studio (and most other editors like Notepad++ and TextPad) doesn’t handle long lines well. For instance, I use SQL Server Management Objects (SMO) to generate database scripts. Some of these auto generated SQL scripts have single lines with thousand and thousand of characters in one single line. When I open that in Visual Studio it just freezes.. or it slows down to the point that it becomes unusable.
Is there any text editor you know of that handles long lines efficiently? (and ideally supports syntax highlighting?
In my experience, SciTE handles long lines quite well.
