This is actually a great idea. You can do so much in it that it is actually really scary. You can go on their wiki and see people who make fully graphical OSs for their computers in the game. (I recomend doing all your programming outside of the game though, since the in game editor looks nice and works, but lacks some useful features of doing it in say Notepad++.)

Jup notepad++ is the way to go, ingame hasn't got syntax highliting (atleast back when I used computercraft) which is quite usefull ^^ is the way to go.

Actually there is a program for ComputerCraft called luaIDE which does things like syntax highlighting. The thread on ComputerCraft forums is here. You can install it by typing: "pastebin get vyAZc6tJ luaide" Oh just to remember use this on an advanced computer otherwise colours won't work.
