Hi munkywrench,
Yep, you are correct - there is always something not quite good enough with editors/ide's. But remember that what you like and think is important other may not.... it's always the case with software.
Anyway - I totally agree that an editor that has all the good parts (I like) of the current ones, is needed. Well one that has the option to enable or disable all the features ever designed and useful
Why not start posting all the features you think should be there... and we could pass them on to the developers of current ones. I know that PHP Designer and Maguma are always looking for ideas, PHP Designer is Free and Maguma have a free version also.
So lets start posting all the requirements and see what happens, if all else fails then - getting together a team sound like a great idea.
Thanks for getting that off your chest munkywrench
it's about time someone did.. lol
cheers
