Bluefish 1.3 features

from: http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/features.html
Bluefish 1.3 (the development version) mostly has the same features with some notable exceptions or additions:

  • In-line spell checker which is programing language aware (spell check comments and strings, but not code), requires libenchant during compilation.
  • Code block folding
  • Highlighting matching block start and end markers (both brackets and tags)
  • Auto-completion for many programming languages, and even for nested languages (e.g. css inside html)
  • Auto-recovery of changes in modified documents after a crash, kill or shutdown
  • Character map of all unicode characters (requires libgucharmap during compilation)
  • Upload / download synchronisation
  • Full screen editing
  • In-line reference information (move your mouse over a function name or tag name) for various programming languages
  • Many new tools (tabs to spaces, join lines, etc. etc.)
