Portable PHP IDE / Editor
There are many IDE posts here, but not for portable ones.
Can anyone help me find a good portable PHP environment? I am looking for the following features:
- FTP && SFTP Sitemanager
- Syntax highlighting
- Autocomplete (optional)
I'm fine even with the paid version. I tried aptan on my USB but the experience was not good.

how about Code Lobster or Dev PHP ? they are both a great editor with ftp controls, autocomplete, sintax highlighting and even debug options, and yes, they are both portable.

Have you tried portable gVim . It contains many plugins for ftp and sftp. I usually use it along with portable WinScp. About autocomplete: I'm running it under the desktop version, but I haven't found a way to do it in the portable version. But I'm used to snippets like in TextMate. Completion is good, but I find this solution better.

What problems did you have with Aptana? Because I made a portable version of Aptana Studio 2 with the original PHP plugin and it works great. I have instructions and a video on my blog if you want to watch it here Or you can try Filezilla for FTP and Notepad ++ for code editing, both are free and can be added to USB. But with Aptana, you get a built-in browser and server for everything you need in one package.
