Hi Autery,
I am using Emacs. It has a steep learning curve, but is very powerful. It
is accessible, but I made a small JAWS script for it to turn off the JAWS
functions for some of the keys it uses. I also made a JAWS frame to read
its message line at the bottom of the screen. It comes from the UNIX world,
and its interface predates Windows, and is different from the standard
Windows interface. It has quite good documentation, and the documentation
reader is quite nice once you learn it. It is written largely in Lisp and
therefore is very customizable, once you learn its dialect of Lisp. I like
it, but I've been using it for years, and you might not want to spend the
time to get familiar with it. You can find it in the Free Software
Directory on www.gnu.org. If you do decide to use it, I have some
customizations you might find useful.
I used to use TextPad, which was also nice. It is a normal Windows program,
so will be more familiar. Its documentation is also good. It, however,
isn't free.

This is so I could build jaws scripts and assist in the production of
audacity and other programs etc.
