That is Sublime Text. It is not free.

  • Free alternatives are jEdit and Kate, but different in the way they work and look.

  • I don't see it explicitly on their website, is the beta version evaluation-only too? sublimetext.com/3

  • To be more specific, the license you have to purchase is not free, but there is a free trial until you buy the license. This trial lasts for an indefinite period of time.

This is Sublime Text (as already pointed out by Cornelius).

But I can not resist my urge to introduce you to Emacs, the most wonderful editor.

Let me tell you: Emacs can do wonders. If you learn it then you can edit text with amazing speed. You can customize it the way you want. You can write your own functions and what not! And most importantly, it is opensource (Sublime Text is not opensourced). So if you are still deciding which editor to use, I will advice you to go for Emacs.

If you are only concerned about the look then you can do the same with Emacs. Here is a picture of my Emacs:
