    Linux Code Editor - Syntax Highlighting, Tabs, Auto-Completion

    I'm looking for a text editor for Linux with not just Syntax Highlighting (working with C++ right now), but also tabs and (greatly desired here) auto-completion.

    I'm using Scite in WinOS right now, and I love its tabs, but I would really really like to have auto-completion again. VisualStudio's auto-completion, from when we were coding in C#, really help on my typos.

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks,
    DrCR

    Also look at KATE and KDevelop if using KDE.

    You might also look into Eclipse and its C/++ plugin.

    Also, both vi and Emacs support having multiple files open, and you can do auto-completion with both of them.
