<div style="background-color:#FFFFFF"><font size="-1">Well, both Notepad++ and Visual Studio (which I both like) are Windows only. Like Jim, I wanted to have something which works on both Windows and Unix.<br>
<br>
I started experimenting with LiClipse and made a first version of Chirp work under Linux Mint 19 - very nice, it allows you to cross-search all files and to start Chirp from within the Eclipse IDE. So far I like it: having a whole development environment which
automatically deals with all involved files and not just an editor definitely makes the work easier.

Downside is that LiClipse isn't free software, it costs $80, and major upgrades aren't free either (I
</font><font size="-1"><font size="-1">will decide soon whether I'll</font> buy it or not). If you don't want to do that, try PyDev, which essentially is the same thing: it's an add-on to Eclipse, and it's free (it could use donations) - but the setup might
be a pain in the back. <a class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pydev.org%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C9ec6539d4ce64ea4255408d793a81639%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637140222447905799&sdata=wbPsyzc2CpbtYtDNOdAro6K2BZ2fGdbr8KZppjkCWXo%3D&reserved=0" originalsrc="https://www.pydev.org/" shash="ewnPBvMu3lKFfmpIgjj+BsBhGbYCHuCYfgzR/GR0NSbIw2GZIXejKQOiuXvsax8rcSHbjhPI0sjomvb++pt5Obz+GTcY46UaQxFNCtCYt2tcmEQccG445C8rtESXh08TgAvKncCvdS4+5IAEn5D0TYNJiaqbPBr730FvXM389iE=">
