Hee hee... I went on google to find a Php editor, and, uninfluenced by the norm, I stumbled upon this little jewel:
HAPedit
What makes it a "little jewel?"
- Color-coded syntax higlighting. (Variables are green, quoted stuff is light blue, etc.)
- Automatically displays line numbers right next to the line, but not part of the code -- makes it easy to find and correct erros
- Shows the line number while dragging the scrollbar, too, for *long* scripts
- When you define a function in the script, and type the name of that function (to call it) it will display a little box underneath listing the paramaters YOU defined for the function, usefull to keep you from having to scroll around to figure out what parameters to set in your functions.
- Also does that for built-in php functions, like mysql_connect, and if()
- When you begin to type a variable, it brings up a list of varables used in the script, in addition to default php variables, if the variable is over (5, I think) characters long.
- Re-opens the files that were open when you last closed the program when you re-open the program.
- If you run the... little line that follows where you type, (not sure what it's called) over a parenthesis or bracket, it'll highlight the matching one. Also does that when you type a closing one. ")" or "}".
- Edits PHP, ASP, HTML, and text.
- Is free.
So, anyway, I just love that little program and wanted to tell the world about it.
NOTE: Just discovered the functions thing today -- wonder what I'll learn tomorrow.
