For a lot of us, the terms "GUI" and "editor" are mutually exclusive. You need to be able to type in an editor. > - Can you comment on what editor do you use for PHP development? > (yes i know is a matter of what you like but since I do not use any > other that simple notepad looking for better options). I use Emacs. In a deviation from the typical editor wars scenario, I find it seriously suboptimal for PHP (or any other mixed-syntax language), since it can't tell what's HTML and what's PHP. I'm told that vi does better here, but I've been using Emacs for 30 years, and my fingers are conditioned to it. If you're new to editors, I'd recommend that you find one editor that you can do everything with. For me, that would still be Emacs, despite the problems with PHP. It does fine as long as there's no HTML in there. > Another told me to get anold product for developing web pages that > has its own editor and ready for php.
