Re: looking for a PHP editor

Editors are like hammers - once you get used to one, well that's what you use because you know how it behaves. For a Windows environment I'll endorse jeremy's recommendation of Ultraedit -- my hammer of choice. It offers some neat features: tons of macros and word files for various languages, multiple windows into same document, an easily used column mode that just great for picking a list of fields from one file and inserting into another. Need hex? Click on the "H" button on the toolbar. Need wordwrapping? There's a wrap button, and wraps can be soft or hard. Need to change formatting between DOS and Unix/MAC? Click of a button. For Linx, etc.? I don't have a hammer yet. I feel obligated to use VIM, but I cut my teeth on WordStar for CP/M so Joe is comfortable, but I'm leaning towards Jed. I find VIM very arcane, but if it's your hammer of choice, go for it. And if you have the horsepower, in the Linux GUI there's Bluefish -- looks quite nice. Finally, don't forget AMAYA, but you won't find and PHP add-ons. Now, can we pick one and get back to work?

the specialized editors for php are bs, you don't need an IDE to script your web page or anything else for that matter http://www.ultraedit.com go get a copy of UltraEdit, download the wordfile for php syntax so it highlights properly, and you're set http://www.ultraedit.com/downloads/additional.html i'm sure someone on this list has said this before - jeremy At 07:49 PM 1/9/2001, you wrote: I went to their homepage, and couldn't find a link to download the actual program, just some example stuff, and it says "coming soon"... Is it out there somewhere and I'm just retarded, or are you mob on a beta list or something???

www.codecharge.com/download Their homepage is sort of hidden because it's still in beta. Like in the version i downloaded the generated code gave a lot of PHP errors. I understand they are working on it every day, sometimes it works, sometimes not. Also my trial period was only 1 day due to some error.
