Hi,
Our company shifted from windows to linux recently. And I don't know anything about linux. I am a java developer. I want a free Editor (like ultraedit, notepad++ in windows), so that I can open more no of files (say 160) and which have options like replace in all files, or in a folder etc. I have tried but I didn't get. I downloaded an installation file jEdit4.3pre6install.jar, but I wonder how to install it? Up to now I know only .exe files.
Please help me.

- Thank you

There are several but most hard core developers I know like to use Emacs or XEmacs. It is more than an editor. It is practically a development environment.

I personally only use Vim and it meets all of my needs. You can also look here for some more editors: http://www.google.com/Top/Computers/...jects/Editors/

I'm also a Java developer. If you want a good Java IDE on Linux, look no further than Eclipse - http://www.eclipse.org/. It's a great, free IDE. Lots of companies use it (including mine) and it is a truly awesome tool.

Hi LTheobald, We use IntellijIdea. I want an Editor like UltraEdit.
