Forgot to mention WING's file search and replace is pretty cool and powerful. It keeps checking changes in a different thread. If you want to change yyy in say 100 files you would:
1. specify yyy in the search window 2. A list of files get displayed with matching yyy 3. As you fix replace yyy in the files the list of files with matching yyy reduces automatically. This is very cool and very useful. Another thing I like about WING is that it warns you if you have tabs ans spaces mixed in a file. The embedded python shell is also a useful feature.
