look into nedit. It does very well on linux, and I hear there's a Windows port. I have a screenshot of nedit at http://24.5.29.77/nedit.jpeg nedit website is http://www.nedit.org/ It doesn't have a publish directly to the web function, nor does it have a built in server- but I just use thttpd compiled with php support for that- and enable directory listings so I can browse my working directory and select the file i want to view in action. Publishing directly to the web is nice- and I may look into adding it to nedit (I'm planning to add some features- though I am NOT the maintainer) but i personally never liked all in one products. Maybe a button to interface with the scp already on the users system...
