Well if you properly setup GVIM (turn off the menus and toolbars) you
have about the same thing. Thats what I use at work instead of
notepad. It works really well.
My _gvimrc file looks like so and accomplishes exactly what you are
saying with GVIM
au GUIEnter * simalt ~x
set guioptions=
syn on
set guifont=Lucida_Console:h9:cANSI
set wrap!
set nu
set tabstop=4
emenu Edit.Color Scheme.torte
set nocp
set bs=2
set swapfile!
