<Spiel for Homesite>
Homesite does all this (indentation!), and more. You can select a section of code, right click, and
"collapse" code. Works great for those loooong IF conditions etc, I can collapse a logic
and have a better picture of the code, then "expand" all. It gives me line numbers as
well. Color coding -- hmm, unbeatable.
I have used BBEDit, and it definitely is tops on a Mac, but Homesite on a PC has very, very
innovative features that most people do not use because they dont play around with it.
For instance, as I have mentioned in my posts earlier, it has SNIPPETS of code (stuff that you can
record, then just click and drag in your code later), PROJECTS -- superb maintenance of code files
and very flexible filtering of files, SOURCE/VERSIONING control, IN-PROGRAM execution of code
(instead of toggling between the browser and homesite for testing, i can execute my code within
Homesite itself!), flexible color coding, the magnificent toolbars (I have so so so many of these
and I can enable/disable them when I wish)...hmm.
For some more extensions to Homesite, check out www.hshelp.com, they have some interesting stuff.

No, I dont get anything from Allaire, but I am just so smitten by their UI folks - impressively
innovative!
