Re: [chiPHPug-discuss] Text Editors

[Andy C. <bng...@gm...>]

I use Aptana for HTML/PHP/Javascript development.  It is really intuitive
with code completion for PHP.  It also has FTP capabilities (a must for
me).  I've only messed with it a little, but Aptana also has some ability to
connect with MySQL data sources.

I've used it successfully on Windows and it works great.  They also have a
Linux version (couldn't get it to work) and a Mac version (runs really
slow).
