Having used all three, I strongly recommend Bluefish. It’s wonderful, versatile, powerful, everything I’m looking for. .

Update on Composer :
——————–
nVu was end-of-lifed several years ago. Another branch on the Composer code base is Kompozer ( http://www.kompozer.net/ ) with versions for the usual OS’s.

Some notes from the trenches :

Quanta + – Nice, pretty, but can be a memory hog.

Bluefish – My favorite, lean, efficient, can be quirky (some replaces don’t highlight ahead of time), “Quick bar” a great place to stash your hottest elements.
*WARNING* – Long line lengths (100+ chars.) can trigger a slow-down due to memory hogging. If you have to edit a generated HTML file with super-long lines (all it takes is ONE !) bust up those lines down to one tag per line.

Other HTML editors -

Netscape / Mozilla’s Composer is still around in some distro’s (e.g. SUSE 10 Book). Also, there is a version in the SeaMonkey bundle. Another variant of this venerable beast is nVu which came from the people behind Lindows / Linspire.

If you like behemoths then take a look at Komodo Edit ( http://www.activestate.com/ ) or Eclipse ( http://www.eclipse.org/ ). Komodo is a monster with a great set of teeth for chewing on a variety of programming projects. Komodo Edit is the free version of Komodo IDE.

If you love standards then take a look at Amaya ( http://www.w3.org/Amaya/User/BinDist.html ). This is the house editor of w3c – the people who wrote the rulebook for the web.

If you are something of a masochist then use the HTML editor in OpenOffice’s Writer.

NB – I’ve had all of the above installed on my main rigs (SUSE 9.1 Box / 10 Book) at various times. My current mix is Amaya / Bluefish (#1 in usage) / Composer / Komodo Edit / nVu / Quanta + / SeaMonkey. I haven’t tried Screem but then again I usually use KDE3.x instead of Gnome.

I wasn’t that excited about any of these and began using Arachnophilia. It’s a java app so technically not Linux but does a good job.
