I also use Eclipse quite a bit, mostly because I like it's XML and HTML editor as well as some Javascript plugins. EPIC works okay for me, but I don't expect very much, just variable completion, and other stuff that works just as good in VI. Mostly I just like having one place for all my editing that is friendly to me For debugging I use either lots of logging or the commandline debugger. -john > > _______________________________________________ > List: [email protected] > Listinfo: > http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst > Searchable archive: > http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ > Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/ > ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.
