Re: PHP editors/IDE

In my opinion, eclipse is one of the best choices for developing, key
features are,
- Development for various environments and languages
That one is important because when you have to develop in various
languages, that could be for different projects, for each IDE, you have
to learn a bunch of new standarts.
I was using Nusphere for php, Dreamweaver for html, css, js,Dreamweaver
for asp, Visual Studio for asp.net, some other tool for python, some
other tool for c++. This means that you have to spend some time for
learning all of these tools, and would not have any common usage. Using
eclipse, it is possible to use them in all one ide, learning once using
for many cases.
- The support for software engineering
Eclipse has support for tools such as case tools, uml modeling tools
etc., Language independent, code generation tools mostly, maybe reverse
engineering support.
- Todo list, including the files and row numbers
You can use the todo list and add tasks, then after a while when you
return back to the tasks, you can go to the file and line that the task
is related to,
- Extensible templating engine
A good templating engine where you can declare variables and use them
in your templates, making code generation properties of eclipse very
powerful,
- A lot of plugins
Plugins such as palm plugin, for development on palmos, desing
pattern building and lots and lots.

I think soon a lot of open source projects for development on eclipse
will emerge, extending its possibilities.

- Bad sides

The code completion is not good, HTML support is poor, lacking of
WYSIWYG editor.

Any comments ?
