Review:

If your tired of coding everything from scratch in a text editor or are just learning to code html then this program is a real time saver. The initial interface may be a bit daunting if your use to a plain text editor but I got use to all the controls and short-cuts really quickly and was soon playing around with the addition of new scripts like C and VBScript which ,if I'm being honest, I find difficult to understand without different sections in different colours. Also the speed at which this worked was great (unlike certain other editors I could mention which freeze my computer every time I try and save.)

If I had to complain about something it would probably be the help. However that's probably because I don't have the patience to do any more than skim-read instructions but after few minuets I found a video tutorial on the internet which taught me how to do some really cool things like uploading via ftp (I certainly hadn't been able to do that with my text editor.)

Conclusion:

So, if you some professional coding genus I'd recommend you stay with your text editor. But for the rest of us I think you'll find this tool really useful especially if you haven't use HTML much before and wan't an easy program to learn with.
