I just installed Mandrake 10.1 and want to get rid of my Windows partition. One thing which is holding me back is programming/web programming/web design. What are some good programs do perform these tasks? I'd like to do more programming (web) in php or asp, but need a good editor as I do not know the language very well. Thanks.
If you are looking for a "click-and-run" programming environment, I am sorry, I dunno. But the standard GNU editors (vi/vim/emacs) have a lot of syntax highlighting stuff in it.
It is never a bad idea to learn the bits behind HTML, CSS and PHP, anyway. Maybe you can continue using the W32 tools in wine?
