PHP Editor for Ubuntu?
Can anyone recommend a good PHP editor for Ubuntu?
I just installed Geany and it looks OK. But if there is something better to use, I am more than happy to install something else to try.
I got NetBeans earlier this evening, but had some issues installing plugins. Too tired (read lazy) to resolve that issue right now, will probably look at that in the morning.
I have been working in Dreamweaver till now, just thought I would try something new - hence installing Ubuntu.
Eclipse also has some great php tools. You also have to install them as separate plugins but it's very simple and done from the software.
Thanks, I will download Eclipse tomorrow and take a look. I don't mind installing plugins, for some reason I was really just battling to get it right in NetBeans. Search wasn't working etc.Originally Posted by DrJohnZoidberg
Have a look at PHPStorm. It is one of the best PHP IDEs available. I would say, better than Dreamweaver. It works on Linux, Win and Mac. You can download a 30 day trail. http://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/
If you want a free programme, you can have a look at Aptana Studio, which uses Eclipse. http://www.aptana.com/products/studio3
But PhpStorm is the best one I have found so far.

Agreed on both. PHPStorm for the paid app and Aptana if you want free software.
Thanks everyone! I will install Aptana as well to have a look. I am avoiding paid apps at the moment, but I will check PHPStorm as well - curious now!
+1 to PHPStorm
I've switched to Sublime Text Editor and love it - it has an unlimited evalutaion period.
