Hi All,

I'm looking for a Gherkin editor or a plugin for an IDE/SublimeText that can be installed in the MacOS X and Linux (Ubuntu) environments.

If you could direct me to an existing one that would be highly appreciated!

Cheers,
mani

You say an IDE so: you can download IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition then install the Cucumber plugin. That will do syntax highlighting for Gherkin feature files.

Even commercial edition of IntelliJ has very buggy support of Gherkin. e.g. Run-time support to run all features is supported only in future 13 version or Early Access Program users.
Have not seen any support of Cucumber/Gherkin in Community Edition at all so far.

Just looked into this myself [1]; have found Roberto Lo Giacco's plugin for Eclipse to be pretty good.

Hi Mani,
  I use Sublime + Gherkin plugin for syntax highlighting. I can recommend it.  See related question on Stack Overflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12275147/specflow-gherkin-highlighting-in-sublime-text-2

Hi Mani,
 
I have a github repo that adds gherkin syntax highlighting to jEdit.  https://github.com/graza/jEditCucumberMode/tree/generate_xml_files
 
Note that this is WIP because I don't have this in the form of a gem.  You have to figure out where jEdit's edit mode files are and run the generate_xml_files.rb script in there.  It will regenerate everything with correct paths, if run in the modes directory; the languages will be based on the version of gherkin you have installed. 
 
Alternatively you could put all the files from this repo there as they include everything for gherkin 2.12.9, but you have to modify the full path in all the cucumber_*.xml files to point at the cucumber.dtd.  I would make this a relative path, but I can't work out to get jEdit to recognise the location of cucumber.dtd.
 
ALSO NOTE: The script will overwrite any "catalog" file you have in the modes directory (as well as the cucumber*.xml files of course).
 
Cheers,
Gra

I use IntelliJ Ultimate Edition for Cucumber:

There are some plugins for Eclipse/Notepad++.
