Of the two editors, which one do you like better, if you have compared them... codemirror, editarea?

Funny you should ask ...

I built a new product for this using CodeMirror but I'm not quite ready to publish it yet because I'm also working on a full file manager that completely replaces the awful one in cPanel and I thought I would just incorporate the template/plugin editor into the file manager product. It shouldn't be too much longer before I publish the file manager + template editor + an improved version of my function and hook finder.

As for the comparison between EditArea and CodeMirror there's no contest: CodeMirrror is by far the better product (no glitches, works in Opera, much faster). The reason it isn't used more is that it doesn't come with toolbars, but I have those working with search and replace, highlight matching, auto-formatting (for minified JS) and other features. Most of what still needs done is phrasing and I'm sure you know how tedious that can be. But of course a project this complicated seems never to be 100% done.
