| As the title says ... pretty much ... are there any best practices for coding on a mac ? In the past on a PC I was used to the editors and their ways of things. Now I'm just finding things different. For example I work on multiple projects where would be best to store them ? In the past I set a folder c:\Projects and worked from within there with all my projects located there. It worked pretty well I set that up as the root for my webserver ... then when moving across to linux based systems it worked pretty well. I've installed Xampp on this machine (obviously I couldn't exactly install wampserver any more I guess I'm just really thinking out loud as I really just want to get up and running properly (or as properly as possible) as quickly as possible I've gone with Komodo editor as my editor of choice for the moment though from the other thread on editors it would appear I should give textmate a once over as well. Cheers, James

| I love komodo edit. Though I see your already using it. Free and and handy. |

| You guys should check out Cyberduck for the FTP upload. I'm not 100% sure if it's free. It should be. It does all that live edits on the server goodness mentioned above. Something that I fell in love with - why have they never introduced this on PC FTP Clients? Or was I not looking hard enough. As regards text editor. I use to use Smultron all the time, but found myself using TextMate more and more... |

| I use filezilla too - does what it says on the tin

| I found FileZilla to crash on major downloads. I recall downloading over 30GB once via File Zilla on my Mac and it crashed. Then again I don't expect any FTP client to handle that load without some issues. I have never notice CyberDuck to crash though. |
