1) I will try Aptana again 2) I use separate stylesheets for all (well, almost all) my css 3) I'm on the cf-eclipse list and asked there first, but the well ran dry I just want Aptana to act as my *internal* editor so when I switch over to my stylesheet to edit, I can do so without any switching perspective, etc. I'm assuming now that Aptana does that?
