So I installed Lubuntu on my secondary PC yesterday, and then realized there was no good editor with syntax highlighting preinstalled. Do you know any good ones?

That doesn't have syntax highlighting (does it?)

Whenever I use it, it doesn't show any option to enable syntax highlighting.

There are quite a lot of choices for good text editors…
If you use Sublime Text there's a native Linux version of it you can get from its website.
If you want something simple that just does syntax highlighting and not much else, you can try gedit.
If you want to learn something completely different from what you already know, you can also try Vim :)/>

I use Notepad++, but I'm not sure if it is multi-platform.
I pretty sure Sublime is better anyways.
