there are several very good ones... which you'll want to go with will probably depend on the languages you'd like syntax highlighting for.
I use skEdit (http://www.skti.org/skEdit.php) for PHP and HTML as well as an all around editor when I need to make quick changes to a file, directly on the server (I'm looking at you, .htaccess). The only "limitation" I've bumped into with it is that it's currently SFTP only (If you'd consider that a limitation). I tend to use TextMate (http://macromates.com/) for my general purpose text editor for local documents as well as exclusively for my forrays into Ruby on Rails, as it has excellent support for Ruby syntax... damned pretty application, lots of very advanced features and as stable as the day is long. For everything else, I use TextWrangler (http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/index.shtml). This is Bare Bones Software's (makers of BBEdit, which doubtless someone will mention as the "Cadillac of mac editors", to which I would reply "hooey!") free offering. FTP/SFTP light footprint. good editor, but no code completion... All of the afforementioned editors have project and ad-hoc project support. Finally... Welcome. It's nice over here ;) - Stephen On 7/11/05, Steve Olson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am in the midst of changing to a new computer, and hope that list > members can give me some advice.
