If Raphael is considering investing in a high-powered editor for do-files
(or even in downloading one free), then the place to look is
http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/t/textEditors.html
If Raphael is a Windows user and wants syntax highlighting, then TextPad
might be a good editor to consider.
Hope this helps.

No.
(I guess because syntax highlighting would entail
a disproportionate investment of programming
effort, and -doedit- is deliberately a minimal
editor. In practice users who want high-powered
text editors already use some favourite outside
-doedit-.)
