The best way to edit Macaulay 2 code or to run Macaulay 2 is with GNU emacs, a versatile text editor written by Richard Stallman which runs well under most UNIX systems. Its web page is http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs.html and the software can be obtained from one of the ftp sites listed at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html; the primary ftp site is ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu.
There is a version of emacs for Windows NT and Windows 95 called NTemacs. See http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/voelker/ntemacs.html for details about how to get it, as well as information about how to swap your caps lock and control keys.
