I used Zend Studio for quite some time and hated every moment of it – TextMate is an excellent editor which is very easily customisable (this is important to me). The PHP bundle has plenty of snippets/commands etc. to help writing PHP code, but there are also other, more generic items which help text/source editing in general. It’s also far preferable to do all your writing/editing in a single environment which can cope gracefully with all your needs. A few tips: * Check the Help command in the PHP bundle for some features. * Use Control-Command-T, Command-T and Shift-Command-T * Look through other bundles too, notable the Text and Source bundles * An example of an invaluable command from the Source bundle is Shift-Command-Return – this adds a terminating semi-colon to the end of the line and creates and moves to a new line below (especially handy when you’re in the middle of nested parentheses) * (Self-plug:) I post general TextMate tips and plug-ins to my blog on a semi-regular basis * Check out some of the screencasts, for example: http://macromates.com/screencast/insert_html_tags.mov Antti: you should remove the PHPCodeCompletion bundle, it’s very old and very deprecated – the PHP bundle has much better completion as standard now.

I am using PDT, it is really a great working environment. NEON is really better, there are a lot of killer function in it (http://blog.felho.hu/neon-zend-studio-for-eclipse.html), but in current stage it unusable: with a bigger project with many files it much more slower than PDT. But I think NEON is a really great direction from Zend. Best Regards, Felhő Hi!

It'll help that part. Start making up new Templates. I just created a PHPUnit testcase boilerplate template. Make your own Snippets. Your problem domain drags a few idioms with it -- automate those with Snippets as soon as you identify the patterns.

However it's an excellent editor for very small projects or solo scripts though. After working with Eclipse PDT for the last year I've settle now with Komodo. It has improved my productivity quite a bit, the way it allows to store snippets, macros, external tools... with a project is very easy to understand and use.
