Suggestion on CSS/HTML text editor

[satimis]

Hi all,

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 desktop 64bit

Please advise which is the best HTML and CSS text editor.

On googling I found many suggestion;

20 Best Free HTML Editors for Linux and UNIX
Best Free HTML Editors for Linux and UNIX - Best Free Web Editors for Linux - Best Free Web Editors for UNIX

Vim (text editor)
Vim (text editor) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

gphpedit
editor do you recommend to me for daily PHP, HTML, CSS development
gPHPEdit - PHP/HTML/CSS Development Environment for GNOME

etc.

TIA

You won't find one that everybody agrees is "the best", but I've always had good luck with bluefish, and with simple text editors such as gedit, kwrite, and vi.

Hi,

Thanks for your advice.

Bluefish is on Ubuntu 12.04 repo.

I found following tutorials;

Introduction to bluefish 2.0
Introduction to bluefish 2.0 - YouTube

Introduction to Bluefish 2.2.0
Introduction to Bluefish 2.2.0 - YouTube

They are quite interesting. I'll try Bluefish

Hi oz and all,

Where can I find a tutorial for Bluefish? Googling found me several threads but on youtube. Thanks

Do I need installing 'Tidy' to use Bluefish. I found;
How to install and to configure Bluefish 2.0.1 to use HTML Tidy? How to use HTML Tidy with Bluefish 2.0.1?
How to use HTML Tidy within Bluefish 2.0.1

I've only ever used the Bluefish Wiki and Manual:

Bluefish Wiki

Manual 2 ToC - Bluefish Wiki

...but I've never used Tidy so am unfamiliar with it.
