Just use a texteditor, like notepad. I would recommend one with syntax highlighting, though, like Notepad++.

Windows sucks, you should use a a OS that actually gives you the ability to open files (like Linux).

I don't think you have to say this in almost evers topic. Everybody has a prefered OS, can you can't change that.

I use Vim or gVim for an editor.

They are good, but they are kind of difficult to learn for someone who is new to code editing. For windows, I would use notepad++.
