I switched to Sublime Text 2 a few months ago just to try it out and never
switched back to Eclipse.
Still love Eclipse for a lot of things (certainly for Java and Groovy
stuff) but Sublime is a really nice, lightweight text editor that I've been
very happy with for CFML development.
If you are on a Mac, then give Coda a go www.panic.com/coda. No
debugging or such thing built in, but a bit more then a plain
text-editor and I simply love the auto-completion for CFML. No need to
hit any special key or get a string of available option, simply start
typing (sort of like Dreamweaver but without the overhead).

Well... I'm using Eclipse and still every now and then I fall back on good
ol' HomeSite. I'm also using Lugaru Epsilon which I've been using since the
mid 80'es which is a very fast and flexible editor. I really like the
"create macro on the fly" possibillity in Epsilon...
I will for sure have a go on both the Sublime Text 2 and Coda. Advantage
with Eclipse, Sublime Text 2 and Epsilon is that I can use them on almost
any platform.. Win/Linux/Unix or OS/X

Yeah I do miss that and it'd be great if folks could contribute to that
plugin to get things in better shape as far as that goes. The OpenBD manual
is damn awesome though!
The major thing I like about Sublime is that it's incredibly lightweight
compared to Eclipse. The project management isn't that great and the SCM
integration isn't great (there are plugins for SVN and Git but I haven't
tried them; I don't mind doing this stuff in a terminal), but it does have
a ton of nice features and I like the zippy feel of it.

Alan, there is a bit of tag automation there, to use it start typing the tag for example <cfhtt then do CTRL + SPACEBAR and you get a drop down of matching tag, hit enter and you'll get all the attributes for you.

I was put on to Sublime Text 2 at the OpenCfSummit. It..is..Awesome.
You can get syntax highlighting for Coldfusion and also install
"triggers".
Triggers mean I can just type cffunction [TAB] then I get <cffunction
name="" access="" hint="" returnType=""></cffunction>
Every time I hit tab it Sublime will auto jump to the next attribute
for me to fill in and then finally finish with the cursor inside the
tag.
I have triggers setup for nearly every cf tag and method that I got
from Adam Presley. If anyone is interested I would be glad to share.

If there is something the ColdFusion package is missing that you'd like to see please post it as an issue on the repository at https://github.com/SublimeText/ColdFusion

Atomi this is a very nice. I am getting more into Sublime ... for CFML work at least, but i haven't left behind my Eclipse.
I miss a number of things ... namely the ability to move files around in the explorer. It's not as slick as Eclipse when it comes to split-pane handling and how quickly you can do it (yes there are short cut keys but my head is full of enough of crap already without having to add more to it!).
I do however LOVE the speed of opening up files, the overall file view (i mean WOW).
Just a little bit more file-integration (move, copy, etc) and cfEclipse may be a distant memory.
I tend to almost always have a terminal open and I can't think of anything faster than the cli for file manipulation mv,rm etc... But there is this extension you might try: https://github.com/titoBouzout/SideBarEnhancements
I personally try not to use my mouse and am training myself to use Vintage mode. I hate my mouse so much so that I put a thumb tack on my desk. And will prick myself before I allow myself to touch my mouse.

You guys are going to laugh.. I still use CF Studio 5. I just like it
for some reason. It's from back when CFML was just CFML and it works
for me. I never could get into Eclipse.

Fantastic work on all this Atomi. About the only thing I'd love to do is
have an OpenBD-specific dictionary. It's been on my list to dig into for a
while but still haven't had a chance, so basically I'm just letting you
know it's on my list. :-) If there's any tips you have around all that to
get me started I'd love to hear them.
Thanks for all your work on this! I decided to give it a shot on a project
many months ago just to see how it would go, and I haven't gone back to
Eclipse since (other than for some Java work). Really appreciate your
efforts.
Do you have the latest dictionary xml file (like the ones CFEclipse and CFBuilder use)? @bbluemel on Github is working on a completions plugin for tag attributes and I'm sure he could use it. The current dictionary for auto-complete we're using is from ColdFusion 10. If you want to see the progress on the new plug-in check out the tagcompletions branch. There's still some stuff he's working on before merging so there is some time to get another dictionary in: https://github.com/SublimeText/ColdFusion/issues/42<https://github.com/SublimeText/ColdFusion/issues/42#issuecomment-6315948>

We can produce this automatically from the engine, as our manual is driven from the engine; thats why it is the most uptodate you can get. Let us know the format for this and i will add this in so you can pick it up from the main site automatically
