The 13th most popular text editor/IDE on Linux

Bluefish is a GTK+ HTML editor for the experienced web designer. Its features include nice wizards for startup, tables and frames; a fully featured image insert dialog; thumbnail creation and automatically linking of the thumbnail with the original image; and configurable HTML syntax highlighting. For validation to work you need weblint and xmllint. For preview to work, you need a web browser that can view local files given to it on the command line.

    Works nice, although the search function should be better. It only gets the first word in default settings, and changing it to another settings is reset after restart..!

    Probably my new favorite IDE. I recently switched all my web development to Ubuntu with Apache, PHP, MySQL running locally. Bluefish is the perfect compliment to this setup. Simple yet advanced. Excellent Syntax highlighting. Great file tree on the left panel makes finding files quick and easy. I'm beginning to wonder how I did web development before all this. I highly recommend Bluefish as I've entirely moved to it for html, css, php and javascript.

    I like this because it is simple and yet sophisticated enough for me to do my coding. Takes up considerably less space on my netbook.

    If you develop for the web or use scripting languages extensively this is a must-have.
