Homesite+ is legacy code, a Windows-only IDE. Supporting CFEclipse or 
DreamWeaver enhancements to add in the features that you like about HS+ is a 
more realistic goal, IMHO. I like HS+, but it no longer makes sense to support 
platform-dependent environments. I'd love to use Linux as my desktop OS for 
development, but I'm still hooked into HS+ until CFE matures or someone else 
comes along with another product. 

I think it's a worthy goal to work on stuff like syntax highlighters for HS+, 
but what is the size of the audience for something like PHP support in HS+? I 
just don't think you'll get any traction.
