On PHP Editors
There is a lots of PHP editors today, free, commercials, open source and everything you want, or almost. But what there is not, the "ideal" editor where you love to code, fast and neat.
Yesterday when a friend asked me to recommend him an editor I discovered that none of the PHP editors fit with my needs. There is two big categories, the boosted in features PHP IDE where you can find everything you want or don't want. This is the category of slow IDE! The second is the very light with just syntax highlighting, few features here and there, and pretty fast but without completition, making you lose type to fix a stupid typo in your code. Between the two categories, I couldn't find anything.
Today I'm using Scite, very small and fast, finally I do prefer speed over features. Even completition is a good feature that I'm missing, after years of development PHP functions become known by heart, for the uncommon a manual check have to be done anyway.
I don't know if this is possible or no, to have something fast, light, with just three or four necessary features, or should I keep using Scite? After all best feature isn't coding, but it's the editor I use for everything, my writing (including this one), open huge log files (from 10Mo to 100Mo and more), change files encoding from 8bit, UTF8, and UCS-2.... etc.
