Dear Scot,
Try emacs. You'll need the html-helper-mode and jsp-helper-mode plug-ins. It is much more capable then EditPlus, as it does code beautifying as well, and runs on UNIX and offers perforce plug-ins, and it's free. Of course, you'll have to remember method names... and now we're back into the flames of trying to figure out which editor is better. Oops.
:-)

Just for everyone's FYI; In the end it looks like EditPlus is the most
suitable editor. None really have the features I need. It looks like I will
have to wait for the solar-eclipse project or try to find the time to help
them out. No available editor does the trick; most have no idea about the
jsp tags, can't deal with custom tag libraries and all certainly fall over
in terms of being able to parse and autocomplete etc java code written
directly in the jsp. (With the exception of the editor that in IBM Websphere
Studio itself). So there is an opportunity I think for someone who wants to
write a JSP/HTML/Java/Javascript IDE or improve an existing editor or IDE.
thanks for your help.
scot.
