Also, Aptana Studio or Eclipse with the WTP plugin make good HTML editors. Aptana is based on Eclipse and they are multi-platform.
I downloaded and tried both. Aptana looks a little easier and maybe even better (to my untrained eye). With Eclipse, the WTP tools seem to come only packaged with Eclipse Java for Developers or Eclipse Java EE for Developers (at least in the binary versions). I downloaded and tried both and being a Java wimp still aren't sure what's the difference between Java EE and Java not EE.

Aside from that, Aptana looks simpler to use. Is there a debate about which (Aptana or Eclipse) is better, or is that a naive question based on ignorance of all the different focuses they were designed for?
