Looking for the Perfect Editor

I'd love the perfect editor that would be:

a) free

b) enable me to drag and drop code snippets from a sort of browser into
the code

c) can run programs right from within

d) can edit
- PYTHON
- Javascript
- HTML
- actionscript (since I'm also learning flash)

e) easy to learn

suggestions?

Welcome to the group of users of UliPad :)

http://wiki.woodpecker.org.cn/moin/UliPad

a) ok
b) by double click (code snippets)
c) ok
e) maybe not that easy because of lack of full documentation, but sure
worth to try, anyway.

Try www.TextPad.com. I've used it for years and love it. It
understands many programming language constructs and can be taught to
understand python so that things show up in color.

Would be kind of you to tell us which one you have decided to use and why?

P.S. If you don't like any of already mentioned you can give SciTe a try.

experimenting with ulipad.

thanks, again

Any tips on how to teach TextPad to understand python?

Thanks,

use Eclipse!!!
it is not a editor but it is the best free IDE out there.
for python use Pydev(pydev.sf. net) plugin:it got
EVERYTHING:comp letteion,debugi ng(with thread support)you can`t work
without a debugger for serious projects.
for Web Develop use Aptana(aptana.c om) another plugin for eclipse,in
eairly stages but it is very amazing support most of open source
javascript library with auto-complete and outline of code.
Scribes look very nice for a editor i will try it for lightweight
editing.

Hi! I'm looking for a replacement for the standard interactive python shell. So far I've tried IPython and PyCrust. I liked both, but I'm not 100% happy with any of them. My main complaint about IPython is its missing support for multiline editing. To do multiline editing, it has to start an external editor, but then I lose all the nice features like autocompletion. PyCrust supports multiline editing, but the autocompletion is not as...

Hi, Hopefully this is not too much offtopic. I'm working on a FAQ. I want to make two versions of it, plain text and HTML. I'm looking for a tool that will make a plain text doc out of the HTML doc. The HTML version doesn't have anything fancy, just internal links. So the tool must be able to delete internal links and anchors from the HTML version, but leave external links in simplified form. That is, the HTML version would say <a...

I'm looking for a compiler, I'm running Windows XP. Can anyone suggest a good one that can output assembly and that has all sorts of good optimizations in it, all sorts of bells and whistles.
