I'd want an IDE. debugging - runtime control, watches, breakpoints, call stack, etc syntax highlighting project level intelligence (Ctrl+Click on usage of a function, variable, class, etc takes you to the definition, as ONE example) phpdoc, javadoc, etc auto-completion and referencing function/parameter hinting integration with Git task list generated from customizable keyword comments like TODO multiple coding languages (PHP, CSS, Javascript, HTML, SQL, etc, etc) find and replace within selection, file, files, directories, etc. (with regex too) FAST (unlike Dreambeaver) Netbeans and Eclipse have all/many of these features. I started out with Notepad++. It's a text editor trying really really hard to be an IDE. I mostly use Netbeans. But in the future I will primarily use Eclipse as I do more work in Java, Android, and Python. Love the IDE for projects. Never going back. I still use Notepad++ for editing config files. -- Josh -- Web Developer PHP, SQL, HTML, CSS, Javascript, AJAX -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
