+1 for vim

I use a limited number of "g" commands, like gg, G and gwap, but I use
them rotely; I've never understood the variations. Can you point me to
some sort of tutorial on these?

Thanks Ash. What is your preferences for indenting code? Do you have it set
so you don't have to hit the tab key at all? I set my numbers in kate to 4
what about you?

I haven't tried this one. I am just so stuck on Kate. I've tried a ton of
editors and Kate is simply the best one for me hands down.

I'll check out php Eclipse. Never know I may be impressed with it.

After about 10 or more years of using KDE, I am have been running Gnome for
about a year now, but I always always install Kontact and kate.

I gotta say I dont understand the "g" commands very well either. They dont
seem to have much in common, and I, like yourself know a handful that I am
comfortable using. In any case, this cheat sheet has several "g" commands
(although I commonly use some that are not listed):

I have to say, back in the day when I used a GUI editor, Kate was the
best I found.
