We are long time users of Multi Edit ( since ME7) and purchased 5 copies of ME9 last year. Multi-Edit is an extremely
important part of our tool kit and use it our dbase and intranet development and maintenance. Apart from ME's ease of use, we
have used the customization functions in relation to a programming language we use to save us countless hours and potential
errors. We would happily recommend ME.

I have created all of the VTM series, including the flagship VTM-330E, using Multi-Edit. Check it out at

The thing that I like the best is being able to mark a block of text in column mode. This way I can change
line numbers or do a search and replace for information in a database file.

I have a software system that is written in C on a Unix box. I used Multi-edit edit these files. The C
color coding and templates make this task much easier. It is also GREAT that you can "compile" this source code on a PC
and still fix any errors that occur.

I'm a web developer/programmer and I work only with ME. I use it for Perl, PHP, HTML, JavaScript, source forge CVS
access. I can not switch from Windows to Linux completely because I will miss Multi-Edit!
All the best,

Worked on many embedded real time projects for the rail industry. Used this product in Australia (when I
was based there) and also introduced its use here in the US (when I moved here).

Despite changing applications and languages numerous times over the last several years, I have been able to
stick with one editor... Multi-Edit. Multi-Edit supports over 40 languages out of the box, and what it doesn't know, you
can teach it. When I want to tinker with a new language, I just check to make sure that language is defined. If it isn't,
I can define the keywords, set up the compiler, and away I go! This allows me to spend more time concentrating on the
programming task rather than spending it learning yet another IDE that won't be around a year or so later.

I have been using Multi-Edit for about 7 years now. I've used mew to build too many applications to mention.
I've used mew for coding in C, C++, JAVA, PERL. I also use it to write scripting in PLSQL, PERL, KSHELL, BAT, AWK. and
XSLT. I also use mew for creating HTML, XML and SQL. I have been a consultant for longer than 7 years, and have sold many
team mates on mew in the past. Currently I use it for JAVA, JSP, XML and SQL

The best thing about Multi-Edit for me is the depth of the configuration access. I really get in there and
set up file extension stuff, language stuff, syntax colors, key words, toolboxes, and hot keys. Multi-Edit's flexibility
is one of its greatest attributes.
I do mostly SQL development. Recently, I got tired of using Query Analyzer and DBArtisan and cutting and pasting and
cutting and pasting. Can't I do it all from Multi-Edit? Well, I realized that I could treat ISQL like just another compiler. I set
up a compiler for SQL file extensions as
ISQL -Usa -Ppassword -dDEV -HMulti-Edit -n -i. -SMyServer
The "-n" gets rid of the annoying line numbers in the output. The server results come back to me in the Multi-Edit compiler
error window.
I created three "compilers" -- Development, QA, and Production -- by setting the ISQL switches appropriately.
I also set up context-sensitive help by pointing at Books Online. Multi-Edit sends the word under the cursor (or
highlight). Even Query Analyzer doesn't do that!
Soon, I'll figure out how to have Multi-Edit send just the highlighted text to ISQL. Then, I'll be in propeller head heaven.
