line Numbers
Authored by: p4t on Feb 03, '03 08:07:30AM

yea i like bbedit but.... what i really like is the file
browser aspect, ie i can add my working directory then
browse through the files instead of having to file>open
for each new file.

I love the way project builder implements this but
unfortunatly i'm lost without line numbers :( they appear
for my c files but not my php ones, i can't seem to
figure it out!

bbedit does not have this functionaly afaik, hopefully
someone can tell me otherwise.

i am currrently using jedit [www.jedit.org] which provides
all the features i need, is infinatly customizable and has
some nifty plugins although its a bit sluggish on my G3 :(
(unlike power builder which seems quite snappy)

cheers

New Editor Desperately Needed
Authored by: shucks on Feb 03, '03 08:23:58AM

Currently I'm working on an editor that just about do all that you needed.
I personally am using Emacs right now but need something that has:
1. Native Cocoa
2. Line numbers
3. PB like file groups
4. Syntax highlighting for multiple languages
5. Code completion
I needed all those in one package and so far is either not there. I find JEdit abit on the slow side too. Tell me if you want to add to any of the above list. I can also put you on a beta program for the new editor which I will be calling YaPee (Yet Another Programmer's Editor Extended)
