    I often use nedit. It is a bit more primitive than kate, but loads very
    quickly, and knows about the syntax of a good variety of languages,
    colouring the text in a useful way (you can of course turn this off if
    it doesn't turn you on...)

    It is in the ports collection under /usr/ports/editors.

    Gedit is the GNOME equivalent of kate, but it is also slow to load.
