Summer of Code: writing PHP plugins
Toomas finished the official part of the google summer of code program. It was an honor to be the mentor and I had/still have a lot of fun with him.
Grab The PHP writing plugin for Eclipse from the update site and check it out if it works for you!
Sorry, but java6 and eclipse 3.3 only! (jsr-223 scripting engine starts from java 6)
Quercus GPL-licensed PHP Fragment is not mandatory - the plugin supports also javascript (and possibly all JSR223 scripting engines).
Have fun and let him know if you find some cool usage for it. Commenting at his blog is a good start.
I had to disable comments at my blog :(
A cool feature would be to write a small snippet that sends selected text to some rafb/etc pastebin and prints the url to the eclipse console view.
Four is the Magical Number - and so is 5920
5920 is the number of pixels you get horizontally when being a Codehooper with serious need for more screen real estate. 6149440 pixels in total.

PS. Sorry if someone has commented here over last few weeks. Almost thousand spam comments is just way too much to moderate - feel free to call or snail-mail me.
