Stand-alone text editor with Visual Studio editor functionality

Is anyone aware of any text editors with Visual Studio editor functionality? Specifically, I'm looking for the following features:

CTRL+C anywhere on the line, no text selected -> the whole line is copied

CTRL+X or SHIFT+DEL anywhere on the line, no text selected -> the whole line cut Thanks!

Zeus can emulate the Visual Studio keyboard.

To change the keyboard mapping just use the Options, Editor Option menu and in the Keyboard panel and select the MSVC as the active keyboard mapping.

Twistpad looks something like Visual Studio 2005/2008 editor and seems has the same key bindings, including Ctrl-X to cut whole line if no text was marked.

EditPad Pro will cut or copy the line the cursor is on when no text is selected. People sometimes report that as a bug.

Not to steal Chris' thunder for his suggestions on Notepad++, UltraEdit, and TextPad, but I would like to point out that there is a version of UltraEdit which can be run from a thumb drive (for those people who lack Admin rights at work and can not install programs).
