Haven't used Kate, but I strongly recommend Sublime Text. It's lightweight and the plugin support means you can add more features if you need them.

What I can't get over with Sublime is how it's $99 for an editor license, while IntelliJ is €169. It doesn't feel value for money.

I used sublime before and was happy enough. But the license thing never sit well with me.
