Which ones have you used before? Which one do you use most or find the most useful?

Eclipse for Java development
Zend Studio (eclipse variant) for PHP development
Visual Studio for C# development
Vim for C / C++ development and other linux configuration.

Emacs fails.
I used nano/pico before I learned vi/vim.
I've used Eclipse CDT, Dev C++ and CodeBlocks for C/C++ development, but the command line just feels more natural.

You should really try Zend Studio. It's built by the same people who maintain PHP itself. I was a Dreamweaver fan before Zend Studio.

I might try it. I paid a good bit of money for dreamweaver though and I would hate for that to have been a waste. Thanks for the recommendation. I will look into it.

Kompozer and Bluefish are free alternatives to Dreamweaver.

Notepad FTW!!!

Actually I use VS more, but Notepad can still be somewhat useful...

I used to use Notepad for coding when I was on Windows, but since then I have become accustomed to the syntax highlighting features of other text editors, and now I can't live without them. I've downloaded GVim for coding when I'm in Windows. I've found I can open a CLI version in the DOS prompt.
