Call tips
This is a editor that does such magical things as use control up/down to skip paragraphs. I love it for in-page bookmarking, code folding, search-replace, escaped-replaces and regular expressions for selections, documents and groups of documents.

Read/write filesystem support for Android.
While it doesn’t offer pure read/write access like you’d expect, this lets you mount things. You can use any other file manager (I use several most notably Total Commander and Ghost Commander), and it prompts to download the file.
Has a free version, but I don’t know what the difference between that and the pay version is.
