One of our guys picked up a copy of an editor called Visual Slick Edit
at LinuxExpo. It can emulate vi, emacs, etc, does syntax highlighting,
line numbers, and lets you customize different settings by file
extension. The new version has a class browser and even does the
context tagging for method calls, etc like some VB editors. Has an FTP
client that lets you open remote files as if they are local. Pretty
cool, and it runs on Linux and Win32 (and some others including
OS/390!). I was always a big fan of vi and gvim, and this manages to
keep all that power and simplicity and put it in a nice package with
sensible GUI and IDE features. It is the best editor I've found for
writing code, especially for servlet code because you don't need a drag
and drop form editor or anything like that.
