PERL Editor that saves in Unix format?
 

Please suggest a PERL Editor that saves in Unix format. Thanks.

(The problem: Cute FTP Pro 2.0 does not seem to have a text-mode upload function that works... it uploads everything as binary. This means my scripts do not upload properly. Why use Cute FTP Pro? I need an SFTP compatible FTP program.)

Ultra Edit....the BEST editor one can buy and it's dirt cheap!

Just look at that.....:)

DynaMite :thumbsup

I find Perl Builder http://solutionsoft.com/perl.htm works excellent :)

Forget it there IS NO BETTER EDITOR THAN ULTRAEDIT....and I
just see they have a new version.....

Do yourself a favor and switch now.....you will thank me for it!

JEdit, http://www.jedit.org

It's 100% JAVA, so it's cross-platform. It also has an awesome plugin architecture that allows it to be extended to do billions of useful things. JEdit comes with builtin syntax for tons of programming languages and a lot of useful programming tools.

If you are looking for a pure Windows program, EditPlus is it. It totally rules. Get it from download.com

Am i the only one programming live via ssh and using joe ?

www.TextPad.com

I agree.

Hmm... but the best thing of course is to get Linux on your computer and use a text editor which formats code... (thats basically the only reason to use an editor anyway). It makes testing a whole lot easier on a linux os.

No I do this too but for editing.....not for developing...I love joe!

DynaMite

I have Perl Builder. Show me how to make it save in Unix format.

I guess it is a good program. I do like it too, but can you show me how to make it save in Unix format?

Thanks. I'll check it out if Perl Builder can not save in Unix format... waiting to find out. I hope it can.

I tried this a long time ago. I can not remember if it saves in Unix format or not. Do you know if it does?

Yep, it sure does.


Jak

No.. I never needed that since I use FlashFXP. BTW If you're used to Perl Builder, I wouldn't switch perl editors. Would rather install FlashFXP as a second client.. I think every editor saves the same way Perl Builder does.

Listen man....go for ultraedit it does save in unix format along
with 1000 other USEFULL options for developers....

code indent, bookmarks in code, very powerfull search and replace in multiple files, save all files at once....auto save every
X minutes so you never lose work, colum mode so you can select parts containing multiple lines, powerfull sort function, diff function, color code, etc, etc, etc

It can handle files up to 2 gigs what more do you want.
There is only 1 better editor and that codewright which cost $2000

DynaMite

Hmm.. seems like they quite improved their editor.
Last time I checked that thing just crashed every 5 minutes.

Re-read my first post! I *need* to save in Unix format, period. What is the best CGI program that does this! Does FlashFXP save in Unix format?

TextPad does the same. How much is UltraEdit?


Jak

When was that 15 years ago....I use ultraedit already at least
5 years.....and it has never....I repeat never ever crashed
You must be confused with some other app...I'm not working for
them....I don't have stocks....I'm just giving you the most valuable
advice you got in a long time.....try it....and you'll send me a cristmas card
because it's just that fucking good



DynaMite

Looks like I might be buying UltraEdit. $35 USD is not that bad.

Ok... nevermind. I'm tired. :1orglaugh

It's $35 bucks......if it would have cost $350 I would still have bought it......I'm not kidding try the damn thing....free 30 full
functional trial available download size 1Mb

DynaMite

I have to stop being so fucking cheap. $15 USD for all this shitty domains that I never did anything with... and $35 USD for an editor which will make me thousands if it really is that good.

DynaSpain, what do you code anyway? Perl or other?

This is what I use also.

Sorry, I kind of blamed the problem on Cute FTP Pro and not on SFTP itself. I am not sure what the problem is. It might not even be Cute FTP Pro. I just knew that if I could save the file in Unix format then that would solve the problem, whatever it happens to be.

[edit] I also did not realize that Flash FXP is an FTP client. (I was assuming you were talking about PERL editors as that is what I was asking for.) Where can I get that from? Maybe Perl Builder and Flash FXP is the best solution.

There are serials everywhere for ultraedit....but pay the $35
bucks the guy really deserves it...

DynaMite

:thumbsup

Now all of you go download the thing and try it.....and I want
to see a thank you DynaMite thread tonight :winkwink:

DynaMite

primalscript
Superb.

Hehe. Lets see if there's a linux version..

End of the day, I need a break. I'll test out UltraEdit later on tonight. Thanks for the info. Be back later.

ultra edit is the shit, its the only editor you will ever need.

does all kinds of wonderful things. its what i use.

ssh and joe? how about ssh and pico or vi ??

Do a search...the whole unix community is dying for it.....so the
answer is no

DynaMite

Why ssh and then edit. Wouldn't installing linux on your own computer and then testing it, work way faster than ssh'ing.

http://www.editplus.com/

hands down the best for programming IMHO

FINE! Don't fucking try God damned TextPad. See what the fuck I care. Geez. FUCK UltraEdit! You heard me! :BangBang:










hahaha I love geek fights. :thumbsup

Jak

Ah. So you're a geek when you program?? I bet it makes a lot more than the daily galleries you have to submit.

Hehe. Just playing with ya.

Well I've only submitted one gallery in my life, for our own program. And, uhm... I'm a programmer myself. And I just saw your "just playing with ya" message so this post has no meaning whatsoever. :1orglaugh

Jak

console : joe, xemacs
xf86 : xemacs, jedit
win32 : editplus (ownz on ultraedit), jedit

Ok I have UltraEdit, and I think I have it saving in Unix format as it asks if I want to convert it back to DOS everytime I load up the file. However when I up it to my server, the scripts STILL do not work. Any ideas why?

[edit]

Nevermind, it is working now. Probably a cache problem in IE... :feels-hot

Anyways, thanks a MILLION.

chmod 755 script ?

DynaMite

I had the permissions set properly. I think it was a cache problem! Thanks DynaMite! UltraEdit is the winner (still on trial version so I'll see how it goes for now...) :)

after a week you'll never want to change again.....read some
of the help files.....just to get familiar with the features.....
most people don't know them....but they're SOOOOO HANDY
you can configure the whole damn thing to your liking....and
everything can be done by key mappings.....takes a few hours
to get to know them.....but look into it you're missing a lot if you
don't :thumbsup
