Rick,

Personal opinion here, but I can't stand visual development. It doesn't 
give me the level of control I desire, and it is far to easy for me to 
open my template in Firefox and F5 to reload and see my changes. 
WYSIWYG, to me, has always meant 'messy bloat code', as the editors 
always seem to overdo what is necessary. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think 
many of the CodeWarriors on this list would agree, which is why we steer 
clear of WYSIWYG for development. I've had to 'clean' far too many 
templates some designer created in DW to ever even think about using it 
myself, for anything.

I personally think that CFEclipse is an outstanding product, and will 
get even better over time. I know from conversations with Mark Drew that 
there are plans for working on the search/find/replace tools, and he has 
discussed possibly tying in with the UML modeling tools of Calisto to 
possibly create CFC stub code from UML models.

My $.02
