Subject: [WEB400] Looking for Ubuntu HTML Editor

My daughter let me install Ubuntu on her Toshiba laptop.  Before she 
takes it with her to college next fall I'd like to assess whether to 
switch from Windows to Linux on my next development laptop.

I currently use Dreamweaver as my editor for HTML, CSS, and JavaScript 
files, but I've begun downloading and testing various Linux based 
editors in my spare time.

So far, an editor named Screem looks like the best choice. 
Interestingly, it doesn't have a WYSIWYG design surface, but I really 
like the auto-complete popups when keying tag names, attributes, and 
events associated with HTML and CSS elements.  And closing tags are 
automatically inserted.  Colors are helpful.  And there are a lot of 
other features to assist those of us who haven't memorized everything 
that browsers do.

Are there other HTML editors I should be looking at?  What about 
Eclipse?  Or, an Eclipse plugin?  I don't plan on doing any Java 
development.   The Toshiba has only 768kb of ram.  Would that be a 
deterant to evaluating Eclipse?
