On Apple I use TextMate, it's unbeatable. Obviously won't work on Ubuntu. So I am asking for suggestions of other great text editors. I don't mind KDE or Gnome, but I am not going to consider vi or emacs. Does anyone here use a text editor for serious web development? I'll be coding in xhtml, css, php, and javascript, so is there something that has syntax highlighting and even word completion for these?

It's a java app, so you can use it in linux/windows/mac. cheers, Owen.
