    I know you plan to add a Project Manager with SVN, CVS, and FTP support. It would be great if it also had Secure FTP (SFTP) support as well.

    Second that, and add SCP to the list too preferably.

    Awesome job btw.

    SFTP seems essential. I do remote editing of files all the time and SCP/SFTP would go a long way toward doing that in a secure way. I've seen replies from the developers that the "generic filesystem support" Windows provides for FTP is what they are relying on, but that seems too rudimentary. I also just saw a post about a Project Manager UI. Hopefully this will include SSH-related file access.

    jhuebel: no, we are do not rely on windows built-in FTP support

    i think that shouldn’t have any priority. (i had a opinion a
    few days before, but someone convinced me otherwise)

    for the time being sftpdrive would be a great alternative :)

    We definitely will consider all your suggestions when we get to implementation of the PM Level 2 feature. Thank you all guys, and keep going with constructive topics like this one…

    FTP, SFTP connections and opening/saving multiple files over connection is essential for most webmasters, developers.

    Basic things taht I've seen people use are:

    opening multiple files via remote connection;
    saving multiple files at once via remote connection;
    saving server credentials;
    copying saved credentials with editor to different machines and also share config files with each other to keep everybodys(multiple developers) accounts in sync;

    For example: I have over 150 different ftp/sftp accounts to acces on now and then basis :) so far only editplus gives me a reasonable support for this task (on windows) as it allows to open from multiple connections and save all files at once and also I can share my configuration file with different locations/users and a big plus that I can turn off all the toolbars that I don't need (biggest problem with other editors).

    I look forward to your next version :) seems like a good lightweight editor to use

    "FTP, SFTP connections and opening/saving multiple files over connection is essential for most webmasters, developers."

    I'll second that. I would love to upgrade from Editplus.

    You might like to check out these, which give you built in sftp/ftp/WebDAV etc editing in all your applications (including InType) right now – they make your ftp site a drive letter in Windows Explorer, allowing any program seamless access:

    WebDrive (http://www.webdrive.com/) – Really good, seamless experience, great caching. Costs Money.
    FTPDrive (http://www.killprog.com/fdrve.html) – Good enough, maybe. Works quite well. Free.

    A good choice for working with SFTP and Intype is the OpenSource (and free) tool WinSCP. I've tried that, I selected Intype as external editor, press the hotkey for edit and change a thing in the PHP-file. Pressing Strg+S saves the file directly onto the server. A perfect match :-)

    Function / Method / Class Hints

    I would love to see function hints driven from JavaDoc or something simular. This could be built into the PM or even within the scope of the origional doc.

    I know a snipit could easily build the javadoc code, but having something parse them would add alot of extra functionality.
