I ran across this editor and found it useful. It's devised as a code editor and works well, for most part, for what I have thrown at it. The thing that might be useful is that you can run the compiler from it and see your messages on the screen using a plug-in called NPPEXEC. For example, here are a couple of scripts for running Fujitsu COBOL 3.0:

Code:
::COBOL to EXE
npp_save
"c:\fsc\pcobol32\cobol32" -M -WC"MAIN" "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"
"c:\fsc\pcobol32\LINK" *.OBJ F3BICIMP.LIB LIBC.LIB KERNEL32.LIB USER32.LIB
::COBOL to OBJ
npp_save
"c:\fsc\pcobol32\cobol32" -M -WC"NOMAIN" "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"

When I run either one of these, depending on what I'm doing at the time, I see the compiler and linker messages on the screen.

You can download it here:
Hope this helps someone out.
