I've finally decided that I want to make my own UI/addons, but I'm not sure what would be the best program to use. I've got the book "Beginning Lua with World of Warcraft Add-ons" by Paul Emmerich (One of the creators of DBM if I'm correct.). But since this book is a few years old, some of the links for add-ons, and programs are no longer active or haven't been updated since 2010.
So I'd like to know if there are any up-to-date programs out there to help write your own UI/addons. Thanks in advance.

I use UltraEdit v12, a powerful text editor with syntax highlightning =)
I use Notepad++ and bought the book World of Warcraft Programming, first edition by James Whitehead, Bryan Mclenmore, and others, and the Second Edition of the same book by James Whitehead and Rick Roe. Those books are much more up to date than the book you are using.

If you use a Mac, I'd suggest TextWrangler version 9. It has a version 10, but 10 is far to convoluted to use.
I'm not evil but my intentions are...
On the Mac, I use Sublime Text 2 or the IntelliJ IDEA with the Lua plugin.
