[url http://textpad.com]Textpad[/url] is nice. I'm sure someone can recommend a free one too. Disregard anyone advising you to use an IDE until you're 100% confident using the command line tools.

He made javac angry, and it bit off his little finger.

My [url=http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=788898&start=10]standard answer[/url] to "what IDE should I use". I know you are asking a slightly different question, but I think the responses will be the same.

The last IDE I used was Websphere Studio, which is Eclipse with knobs on.

That is a fantastic post, mlk.As far as plaintext editors go, I'm a great fan of Notepad2.

I was never much a fan of that. Ctrl-Alt-Backspace 4 Meta-X Alt-Shift-Y.Edit: Doesn't look like it!

I only use NetBeans for the Visual editor (it is lovely), and only use the standard Eclipse build (I install random plugins then never use them) but don't they both support plugins?
