What's the best one to use with beginners ?
Something with integrated syntax editor, browser of doc...
Thanks,
Before this message goes stale, there's TextMate (which I have too
much experience with to consider redeemable in any way)...
....and there's Komodo Edit.
The problems I have with that are...
- the code browsing breaks when the wind blows, and you must Find in
Files
(my library, Django, is symlinked below my project, so FiF can see
it)
- the editor refuses to let me run a script - such as a test script
-
each time I hit F5. For whatever reason - poor keyboard remapping,
or lack of a plug-in for Django - I must use Ctrl+R to run a batch
file, just to test. Testing should be ONE (1) keystroke.
- FiF sees my .git folder, and everything in it. WTF??
- after searching or anything, I must click the editor with the mouse
to resume editing. <Escape> should move the focus out of the
frame to the editor, and of course any activity that takes you
out of the editor should dump you back into it by default
Other than that, it has all the standard edito
My problem with Mac in general is the keystrokes are always so broken
they force me to switch to a mouse. Nobody seems to usability test
these things and see how long you can type & manipulate windows
without
