Personally I find ASCII easiest.. And this programmer uses Visual Studio 2005, Delphi 2007 and for some of our legacy dos apps (I mean we have clients who still use those?!!? ) C++

We have deadlines..

Although to program our old legacy handheld's we do have to code in Assembly and dump the code as Hex into the flash via RS232. That's "fun" I can tell you

For all out web stuff it's just plain text. Notepad would do but when you have several hundred pages of HTML, PHP , ASP, etc then a little formatting helps!

Eclipse for me. A little bit too heavyweight for my liking in many ways, but incredibly extensible for the multitude of languages / markup languages I'm coding in, with a lot of verrry nice features.

Except on the Mac, where I use BBEdit.

Right there with you on the source editing - I can't stand using the likes of Dreamweaver, and prefer full control over the HTML / CSS etc.

[EDIT]Mind you - just downloading HTML-Kit now, to give it a whirl. Looks good...[/EDIT]

Call me lazy.. but the HTML-TIDY function of HTML-KIT is fantastic. Especially when you're trying to track down a missing Table end tag or something

I was most and best trained by an MSc in computing. He used to satirise low level programmers "Matchsticks. You need matchsticks. You can build anything with matchsticks."

He wa all for solving a problem with the most high level language you could use, and that often a problem could be solved with one word thingmy, where thingmy was the program that someone else already wrote to solve the problem. He was looking for his holy grail, the one program that would solve most of his problems. It would be called "PayMe".

I use Dreamweaver to help me manage web sites – it's good for moving things around and making sure all the links still work, then sync-ing by ftp back to the host server.

Can't do that with Notepad.

For the actual HTML creation, I'll either use Dreamweaver if I have it open, or 'vi'.

Checking it out now. Any idea if there's any plugins to tie it into the MS source control API?
