I'd like to get away from using notepad.exe to code with due to its
limitations. Something that supports syntax/code highlighting and has
browser previews would be nice features. I'm looking at Aptana
(www.aptana.com) but it seems like it is more complicated to use then
it should be. Either Linux or Windows IDE (i run both OSes)
recommendations would be fine.
Not an ide - I use bluefish, which is a gui text editor with syntax
highlighting. It's an X11/gtk2+ application, packaged for most Linux
distribution (ie yum install bluefish on Fedora or RHEL)
For previewing, I just run a web server on my development box.
Only hitch with bluefish - the syntax highlighting sometimes gets
confused and it drops the highlighting. Press F5 and it reloads.
I believe there is a windows port of bluefish but if I was on windows,
I'd probably just use Homesite (not free).
Look at phpEdit. It has everything you are looking for and is rock solid. I love the folding and
regions features.
