Whats the best way to edit plugins?
 

I currently use the vbulletin editor to make edits to plugins, however its becoming very tedious. On every code edit, i have to submit it and then reload the plugin from the plugin list to do another edit. I spend more time opening the plugin, then on actual edits :)

I was wondering if anyone came up with a good way to do php edits to plugins that is more seamless?

Thanks!

Well you could always make each plugin just contain an include statement, then you could also use a version control system if desired. I think there's a vbulletin development system that works that way and handles some of that for you, but I've never tried to use it (or maybe it's not a piece of software but just a convention that some people use? I was hoping someone else would have an answer about that).

I have always edited them manually (in the product XML file) and just reloaded that when ready to test it.
