My main performance gripe with NetBeans has lessened in the year I've been using it, so I'm less inclined to go up yet another learning curve, but it's always helpful to get input on the competitors. Please let us know if you end up using it in your class as I'm sure others will enjoy reading your findings. I spent about 10 minutes looking over the feature set of Komodo which was recommended by Steve Staples in this thread, and it also looks quite impressive. it's more expensive for the IDE (the stand-alone editor is free) which does remote file-syncing ($295), but you might be able to swing an educational discount with them. Most companies will gladly give their product away to put it in the hands of soon-to-be-professionals. :) Good luck! David
