I used Aptana a bit, really liked the interface. However, I recently stepped
up to the (free) NetBeans (http://netbeans.org/). I believe it has all the
features David is looking for, including project-based search and replace.
I know it's very popular in the open-source Drupal CMS community.

Looks like they were acquired by another company. I'm not sure how or if
that changes the software.
But I remember it having most of the things you are looking for.
Cheers,

Hi Guys - I use Dreamweaver at home and would like it at work - but the
grey suits are baulking at the cost. The major points that I really need are
1) a whole-site capacity where you can do global find/replace commands (a
boon for handling translations) 2) a link-checker to see it all works that I
haven't forgotten anything 3) a dual screen view of code and design so I can
adjust either 4) a muli-language capacity so I can easily cut and paste
other languages (such as Cryllic, Japanese etc) Dreamweaver can handle these
without problems - but can any sinlge basic application do the same - or do
I go beg for the real McCoy? Thanks - David
