I second UltraEdit, even though price has gone up. Nice features are hex view and 
column mode. UltraCompare is bundled with it, useful.

Wanting to do a one-off upgrade I wasn't paying attention and accidentally updated 
to a subscription licence. Renewal price has increased too much for my liking 
(couldn't see the value... what fundamental new features can you add to a text 
editor, year on year?), so I tried to revert to my old perpetual licence... no  joy. 
Compelled to purchase a new licence. Plan to not upgrade for a long time. Tip for 
non US customers: hidden surcharge of 10% (allegedly for currency exchange) for 
anything other than USD, but can switch to USD.
