nilson Posted December 25, 2003 Share Posted December 25, 2003 I need a good text editor for PHP. I use Crimson Editor on Windows, but it's not available for Liunx. It needs to have syntax-higlighting and support a tabbed interface (multiple files open at one time).Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonicDragon Posted December 25, 2003 Share Posted December 25, 2003 try Kate. It's probably already installed if u have KDE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havnblast Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 I have always like Bluefish from the first day I used it. Great little program and I hope it works for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akorvemaker Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 Screem and Gedit support syntax highlighting for many files. They're both made more for running in GNOME than in KDE. I'm not sure if they fully highlight PHP syntax right now or not. I believe that it will be added soon though. If you prefer KDE, I've heard good things about Quanta.

SonicDragon Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 Quanta (KDE) and BlueFish (gnome) look to be the best for web stuff. Kate is awsome for perl and bash because there's a built in bash shell right in the program. Pretty cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilson Posted January 18, 2004 Author Share Posted January 18, 2004 I will never find anything I like better than Crimson Editor. I've not found something better for Linux yet either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havnblast Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 Edit Plus 2 works great for windows - does the color coding and stuff -- in linux I like the default editor myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulturesrow Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 Everyone knows the best editor for html in linux is vi. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LilBambi Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 I have not used any other text editor, text based html or php editor since I downloaded Crimson Editor after it was given high praise here for Windows. It truly is a great text/code editor. Wish they'd port it to Linux. ;)I still use whatever tool is best for a given project, but when it comes to quick and dirty text, html and php coding, I really love Crimson Editor too.vi .. of course if you want to do it command line, then vi is great ... but personally I prefer mc's (Midnight Commander) text editor when I am at the command line in Linux.
