PureBasic Forums - English

I've had a couple IDE's shared with me. Which editor do you prefer to use, and why? I'm looking for the best tool here--increased productivity.

Thanks!

Search terms: code editor, text editor

The official PB IDE, but euh... there's no poll / list of options, I assume you'd like answers in text then?

The official IDE does all I need. Auto-completion, auto-indents, debugger,
syntax coloring, context help, procedure folding, procedure jumping, etc.

Maybe other editors do all this too, but I'm the sort of person who won't
install other stuff to do what already comes with the package.

For most text related things i have long used UltraEdit but for PB I use the built-in IDE. I believe it's Scintilla's SciTE which is also used with another Basic compiler I use (ZBasic for embedded microcontrollers) with a slightly different feature set. I don't know how you would integrate it into an application but it might meet your needs for Windows and Linux but I'm not sure about OSX. http://www.scintilla.org/

Maybe more specifics about what you want to do would elicit more on-target responses.

I use jaPBe for most things.

PureBasic IDE for PureBasic, NetBeans for large PHP/C++/Java projects, Notepad++ and the command line for everything else.

Final build scripts always in Bash.

Ah, if it's not for PureBasic it's either NotePad or Context.
