Syntax Highlighting

[MysticMat1]

Hey. I hope I'm not starting a holy war here, but what do you guys use for syntax highlighting? I'm getting ready to do some web development for a college class I'm in (Specifically I'll be using PHP, HTML, CSS, SQL & JavaScript). I'm open to any suggestions. I know that Vi and Emacs can do this but if you use something else I'd like to know what you guys work with.

Kate is fantastic IMO. I use it mostly for c, python, and perl scripting.

Besides vim I sometimes use anjuta. Work's great for php .

Well, this may be a little overkill since it's a full IDE, but I love Eclipse for Java and there's a nice C++/C plug-in for it as well (via CPT, found on the www.eclipse.org website).

vim is great, anjuta also looks nice, but i've never used it.

can't say i've ever really used anything but vim, but i love it! there's a nice little paper, i think in the JL library about customizing vim for programming which i know isn't what you are asking, but it's really cool... speeds up the programming process alot!

You have many choices. Bluefish (http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/) is one of them.

bluefish for html and css
emacs for programming
emacs or vim for sysadmin stuff and scripts

I really suggest you check out bluefish. It's slightly more than just editor with highlighting. It can hold your hand when you don't remember exact syntax of something and speed things up by doing trivial stuff for you, but still doesn't get too intrusive.
