Morning, internets! Could someone be so kind as to recommend a code-friendly text editor for !Linux -- something like #TextWrangler for Mac?
-
@acurrie Kate, gEdit, Jed, (g)Vim, Emacs, etc
-
@acurrie Of course, that's without knowing much about textwrangler. That said, because I like KDE, I'd recommend Kate :)
-
@nathwill Was specifically looking for something that preformat (indent) lines of code for me, if that makes sense?
-
@acurrie Maybe #scite? http://is.gd/ct6gn
-
@acurrie tried gedit? gnome-vim? nedit?
-
@acurrie by code friendly, do you mean it has syntax highlighting? I think gedit does that, but I've used emacs for 15 yrs
-
@rysiek Kate is awesome. I tend to use Kdevelop though. The nice thing is, it uses katepart so it has all the features of Kate and more
-
@acurrie gedit maintains indenting as you go. you looking for an editor for a specific language?
-
@acurrie Gtk: Gedit (gnome), GVim. Qt: Kate (Kde), Other: Scite hope it helps!
-
@bogart Tabbing/indenting of lines is more what I was looking for, as in: http://ur1.ca/0426z Dunno if Gedit does that or not. Trying Scite.
-
@acurrie try gvim or kate
-
@acurrie i've been using redcar while coding my own in qt.
-
-
@acurrie: vim
-
@acurrie and there are plenty others, just hard to mention them all in 140c. :-)

@losinggeneration I do not do C/C++, I tend to stick to PHP, Python, Bash (sysadmin here ;) ); some of my projects are 20+k LOC, though.
-
@rysiek There's a PHP KDevelop plugin that does some nice things like autocomplete, documentation tooltips and more. Might over kill for you
-
@losinggeneration I like the "up in 2s" mode of working with #kate, but I'll have a look at KDevelop, thanks a bunch. :)
