  PSPad editor

  Not user friendly

  by: caenet on 01-May-2008 07:24:24 AM

  Cons: PSPad tries to access the internet every time

  I (& many others) launch(ed) PSPad.

  The developer & team have no interest in

  addressing this issue & in fact told me

  to use some other program. I now use Notepad++

  best free programming editor around

  by: SammyF70 on 23-May-2007 04:49:31 PM

  Pros: lightweight, very good syntax and brackets highlighting, code completion for (at least) PHP, JScript, CSS and HTML, and all the functionalities you'd expect from a programmer's editor.

  If you don't need the visual part of the Dreamweaver editor (and you could still use NVU for that), it's a very good alternative

  Cons: closes quotes and tags automatically, making it sometimes a bit frustrating when you're editing PHP or Jscript.

  Greatest free code editor

  by: kcreek on 05-Jul-2007 05:20:34 AM

  Pros: Not only can you create and edit code, PSPad allows you to have code highlighting enabled so you can easily alter and create code faster. Furthermore, if color codes are needed to be inserted, there is a built in color picker that can enter color codes for you. Also, it has FTP support, you can create projects, and its ALL FREE!

  Excellent code editor

  by: Cold Shot on 17-Jul-2007 07:55:30 PM

  Pros: If you hand code at all, this is the editor to use. Feature rich and still easy to use. I've been using PSPad for nearly a year now and I can do what I need to do quickly and easily but when I slow and check the menus I can still find another feature that makes some task easier.

  I have used the search and replace function on numerous occasions and have not had any problems.

  This is free software that would be worth paying for.
