There aren't much choices. There is Annotate and GVIM. Latter requires learning of a lot of keystrokes but is very efficient.

Only possibility to run CED on AROS is with UAE.

Here's what Olaf wrote in this interview:

As for AROS, CygnusEd is too much of an AmigaOS application, developed  for the kind of machine the Amiga was in its 68000 hardware form, to allow it to be ported. I am afraid that a more reasonable  approach would be to start over from scratch instead. That kind of effort is not on my todo-list right now.

The good thing about Annotate is that it has syntax-support for AmigaE from start in your case =) A side note running it on AROS is that the palette is a little bit limited. Maybe a port of "Fullpalette" on AROS would be a great thing to solve this, or that we add RGB-Pen support in Annotate. I've told "Deniil" that I would like to see this in a future version on Annotate and I hope that it won't take too long =)

Please, do. Obtaining pens with e.g. ObtainBestPen() is the system friendly way to get pens. If that isn't possible, tell me what specific feature of FullPalette does Annotate need.

There is a beta-version of Annotate 3 in a test phase right now (only on OS4 atm.) but it will be available on all Amigasystems when the full release will be done.

Great.
