Hi folks!

I use XEmacs for both Windows and Linux.
Why?
- automatic indentation and fontifying
- folding
- CVS-Integration
- FASTEST editor to use once you know the keyboard-shortcuts (only a few
are necessary for basic editing).
- Jumping between buffers, searching, search/replace... everything
without touching the mouse in no time! And: no editor is as extendable
as Emacs. If you like you can easily integrate PHP Debugging, for
instance. There are modes for almost every programming-language
available....
I have also tried many special PHP-IDEs, but IMHO they all suck at some
point.
I know that XEmacs looks complicated at first, but it's definitely worth
to dive into it. I can not imagine a faster and more comfortable editor
anymore!
Cheerio,
Dan.
