Which one is better and why?

Oh and while I'm asking... what svn plugin do y'all use for eclipse? Tortoise?

Tortoise?
Tortoise has always treated me very nice.

I have officially shelved Zend Studio. Compared to Eclipse, it is utter and complete crap.

I use the tortoise stand alone client for SVN. I haven't looked at SVN plugins for eclipse yet.

Never tried the Zend IDE plugin for Eclipse since PHPEclipse made me smile anyway :)

I just use the svn command line client for subversion... you can't beat a command line.

I just installed both, and so far, I see no difference. :?

The SVN plugins for eclipse works well. I use it daily. That and the ESFTP plugin.

You know what? I totally read this poll wrong. I thought you said Zend Studio. Sorry about that. I have not used the Zend PHPIDE. I don't plan to at the moment as Eclipse if working exactly as I would expect my IDE to work.

Zend PHPIDE is a PHP Plugin for Eclipse, as is PHPEclipse :) Which are you using? :)

The Eclipse editor with the PHPEclipse plugin.

I tried Zend PHP plugin for Eclipse and had too many problems with it so stuck with PHPEclipse.

man, i was hoping it was done in C++ so i can actually read the PHP debugger part so i can try to impliment my own down the line. i don't want to relearn Java to do that. also, i hate Java

Eclipse has so many cool things on it though. i really want to give it a shot but i don't want to install java onto my machine in order to use it
