Well, I'm somewhat biased towards a commercial editor called Sudden
View.  I've only played with Tempus (there's a demo on atari.archive);
I think that SV is faster.  It FEELS faster.

For PD stuff, there's lots of stuff out there:

Emacs clones
vi clones
origami (a "folding" editor - before I got Sudden View, I used
          Origami.  It is pretty nice.)
Alice - a German editor, very similar to STeno (the GEM Desk
          Accessory).  I probably should upload a copy...

Check on atari.archive.umich.edu, in /atari/Editors.  There's got to
be something there that you'll like.
