Question

I like PhpEd because with CTRL-SHIFT-S, it will upload to the test server, so no need to switch to the FTP client, locate the file, and upload it.

I also like TextMate because the display is nice (Monaco font is less cramped than Lucida Console and easy to look at than Courier)… and also with a left panel for folder and file listing.

So on the PC / Mac / Linux, is there such an editor that can do

1) Easy FTP
2) side panel file/folder listing
3) good look font
4) auto indent
5) auto re-indent
6) show matching { and }, and matching <div> and </div>

I tried a few… like Notepad++, jEdit, or Programmer’s Editor and don’t seem to find these features yet. Do you know an editor that comes close?

Answer 1

I use PSPad – if you open a file from FTP, every time you save it is uploaded to the FTP server.

It also supports writing scripted macros.
