R-/Text-editor for Windows?

I've tried Emacs Speaks Statistics and found it just confusing, to say
the least (by the way, I'm puzzled by why so many people adhere to
this one. Maybe it's a matter of getting used to it...?)

You are right... it is confusing, and it takes some time to get used
to, and it is not for everyone.  But, it is totally customizable, and
combined with org mode and org babel it becomes a tool as no other.
I?ve tried about every editor, including Tinn-R, Notepad++, and
Eclipse with StatEt, but after switching to Emacs/ESS there is no
turning back.
