I had a look on download.com, did a search for PHP editors and came up with AnyEdit, with which you can do Java, C/C++, PHP, Perl, .css files, HTML files, the whole caboodle. The reason I like it is cos it highlights the code which makes it dead easy to program. I tried PHPEdit but it made Apache play up for some reason (no idea why) so I tried other things and came across AnyEdit which I think is great...
[edit]Forgot to mention before, but AnyEdit can be downloaded from http://www.anyedit.org[/edit]
EMACS gets my vote. It does everything I want it to do, and more that I don't know about. It's damn big, but disk space isn't much of a problem these days. And it does syntax highlighting and there's a PHP mode for it, though I don't think it's builtin.

edit++ has the syntax highlighting and you can create a template for any language, their site has a ton of templates too.. it isnt terribly big, but the thing i like the best is that it has a file explorer on the left side of it to make editing multi-files easy
In windows, I use Ultra Edit 32 for my coding. It does great syntax highlighting, and many other things. It is the only editor to use for programming, for me.
its only $35 dollars Best 35 dollars you can spend on software, IMO

I've tried Zend Studio 3 times. 2.4, 2.5 Beta, and the new stable. I like it a lot, but I agree that it's just too unstable at the moment. It has a lot of time saving features but they are offset by the problems.
FWIW, I went from a 900MHz machine to a 1.7 gig machine and it played a little nicer.
I use pico in Unix, unless no one's installed it, then I use vi.
In windows I play Battlezone, Quake II, and The Sims.
I've thought about trying some of the newer code highlighting editors, but haven't really had a compelling reason to replace pico.
did you know that if you run pico with a -b switch you can do multiple search and replace?, and -m makes the mouse interactive? and -w will let you have long lines that don't autowrap? just alias it so you don't have to enter them all the time and you're set for having a nice little editor.

Yup.
Way back at my last real job everybody used Windoze, 'cept for me, who opted for Linux. Then one day an NT machine was dropped on my desk, and I was ordered to use it. Fortunately, there were no demands made that the Linux box go, and I continued to use it for 98% percent of my tasks. And I did cringe intensely whenever I did have to use that NT machine...
On the server side, we had a cluster-f*ck of QNX, WindowsNT, Solaris and Linux. Funny how QNX, Solaris, and Linux all 'played quite nicely' together, yet when certain 'integration issues' arose when trying to bring NT into the picture the MicroShaft manual seemed to insist that the problem was on the 'other machine'.
