IMHO, it's well worth it. I've switched to it from Notepad++, and I've
tried a fairly large number of other editors for it. It catches parse
errors and other things that you normally wouldn't find until run-time,
and let's you see what you're working on as you're working on it. It
shows you "quick diffs", which highlight the left area before the line
to show you things that you've changed/added/deleted since the last
save, and so much more. Also, you can place the cursor on a PHP
function and get context-help from the PHP Manual. It doesn't support
all of the functionality of PHP 5 from a syntax standpoint, for example,
it doesn't yet seem to work totally with PHP 5 classes and the like, but
otherwise, it is wonderful. I'd recommend it highly.
