"About a year ago, we tried to install some of the new
versions of Quanta + that were being released. The choices for
HTML/PHP editors under the Linux OS was very limited. And sadly, we
had a heck of a time getting Quanta + installed. Fortunately for
theKompany.com, many people can enjoy Quanta + now because it is
included with several commercial distributions. Otherwise, forget
it.
...Highlighting php code is never perfect in Bluefish and the
same is true for Quanta Gold. As we were typing, colors would be
changing above our text. Blue - no red - no green - no purple. Oh
well. I stopped relying on the color coding to figure out if there
was a mistake in the code.
The bottom line is that we cannot recommend this product for
professional webdesigners. Even though the program is less than $40
for the download version, I just can't see a programmer being happy
with it. Maybe someone interested in learning HTML/PHP coding might
find the program helpful. However, a professional would throw up
their hands with the mouse error and the strange highlighting. It
is certainly not a dream tool for a professional."
