I also use Zend Studio. It's not free or open source, which I dislike, 
but it's the only editor I've found which does the basic things I need.

* Code completion, automatically, without pressing any keys, of both PHP 
and custom functions. It works well for WP functions.
* Code navigation. CTRL-click a function / class / etc and it will take 
you to the relevant file / line.
* Highlighting, including basic parse errors

As an aside, guys, this is a very busy list, please, keep the "I meant 
MHz", ipod and other inane chatter to yourselves, please. We don't need 
to generate a new mail for each of those comments. On IRC or a quiet 
list it might not matter, but this list is huge and busy.

Cheers - Callum.
