Hi ghostyjack,
It's a bit hard to recommend an editor for you without more details on what you need to do.
If I understand correctly, your big problem right now is that you find it a bit difficult to do some text manipulation using macros because it's hard to perform perfectly when you record the macro right? And everything else is basically working for you?
If that's true, I would look hard at tools that give you an actual "language" to work with because it sounds like you are running into the limits of what can easily be done using nothing but graphical point'n'shoot alone.
That language could be something like Vim's macro language, or emacs' lisp or VBA for MS Word. jEdit and Scite are editors with a macro languages as well. You could even go for a straight up computer language like Perl or Python.
Actually, before you do that, study up on regular expressions. That way you will be able to use Edit+ more effectively right away. And you might find a way to do what you need using only regexs, or maybe some command line tools like sed.
