Editor that matches HTML tags (Notepad++ alternative)


Hi all,

I use Elementary Luna OS (based on Ubuntu 12.04) and love it; however I am doing a lot of web design again now.

I used to use Windows, and used Notepad++. On NP++ when you click on a div, it will highlight that div and also highlight the end </div> that corresponds to it. It is very useful as when people want me to update a site built by someone else, often the code is messy, so it's great to be able to just click on the div, see where it links to and just delete that whole section without having to count up the div tags in between that section to ensure i'm not leaving a div un-closed.

Have uploaded a screeny to show what I mean. Does anyone know of anything in Linux that can offer this? Am looking for an easy to use editor, and am currently using Scite which is great other than it not having this feature.

Thanks, and I have looked around a lot online and can't find much on this, as other's have tried the same things; however many were a few years old so hopefully someone has done this since!
