Because its 3 years old is a good reason.. to a level I guess. also if you
are using it for a language (cfml) that is changing and getting new
features.
If you are just after an editor you can stick with it... but if you need
more of an IDE switch to CFEclipse

I love CFE, but I can't get away from HS. It's just perfect for me.
There is no way for me to be as productive and as efficient as when I'm
developing with HS. I've been using it for so long that my brain
automatically uses my code templates and keyboard shortcuts for all
kinds of things. I've
Hi Jon, Here are some good reasons to switch to CFE.
My feature list
1. popup help on the tag insight
2. attribute help as well!
3. only remaining attributes shown on insight
4. mandatory and optional attributes indicated
5. tasks - if you add !--- TODO: task text --- this is added as a task and
I used CF Studio 5/HS+ for years and years. I started with HS2.5. I
also had years' worth of snippets, shortcuts, macros, code blocks, etc

developer that uses a Mac, decided to try it to have a bit of

If it works for you and you never get to some point where you ask yourself
why does it not have feature XYZ then I say just stay with it.
About 1-2 years ago I forced myself to switch from Homesite/CFStudio to
DWMX. The reason I forced myself to do it was because I saw that a lot of

There are certain features that we just get used to having and use all the

to no source control here and that one feature I am growing fond of.

Macromedia released tag updates for Homesite, so that's not really relevant.

With CFE how does the CSS work as you type it out? I always liked how DWMX
deals with that. I have seen people mention plugins for CSS, so I assume
there is one out there that gives you the same effect? I think that is one
thing that keeps me away from CFE, not knowing what plug ins to get or
Rick,
Do not even mention He3.. pah! ;)
we have done a lot of work on CFEclipse especially recently to bring
it in line with some of the HS user's expectations but we cant keep
everyone happy.
I have some plans for functions in CFE that will make HS look like
what it is... an old editor.
