I am too far away to send to but I now use the editor as a php IDE as well. I gave away PHP designer and Codelobster and only use the editor to add php to my pages when necessary.
Coffee's(The Editor) ability of snippets and 8 application launcher is fantastic. A couple more abilities would put the icing on the cake. Still, it supplies the bones a few utilities gives it wings.
I did add a utility to my storage area, anyone is welcome to have it here.

If anyone else wants to give the mighty Coffee additional abilities just ask an I will explain how I use it in conjunction with Wamp
Usage of Open Local:-
extract to any folder, Edit page.txt add your localhost url ie http://localhost/yourpage to top line
add Wamp or Xamp as an application to run
add OpenLocal
Run Wampmanager or Xampmanager then Openlocal your page will open go between that and the editor to view changes as you make them as if you were editing online
This then gives you the opportunity to test forms produced by the mighty WFB and use the database or csv files before going live.
Yeah! CC supplies the bones we supply the meat
Dear Prism,
It seems that OpenLocal is hard-wired for a particular path. Attempt to run it on Win XP-Pro 64-bit with XAMPP results in:
As a workaround, I created the necessary folders (c:\ => Wamp\ => www\) to satisfy that path and then placed page.txt there. OpenLocal now works properly. So thank you!
Hmmm... OpenLocal is a 170KB Windows .exe. I will look into reducing that footprint.
Yes, I looked just like that in 1962.
