PHP text editing applications - Recommendations?

vi baby!

I think Jedit is a fairly decent system for windows... I know one of my guys uses eclipse, but that's a unix/linux thing and he moved to that from jedit.

I personally just use Dreamweaver since I mix PHP and HTML all over the place. What are the advantages of using a PHP editor?

From what I'm seeing so far the syntax highlighting is much more php friendly, plus some have got lots of code snipped stored for easy insertion to make life a little easier. Mainly the code highlighting for me since it helps so much with getting new functions right the first time and debugging when I don't

I'm using the Zend editor. Its a little expensive, but it comes with lots of bells and whistles.
