lol, I hear you there! I think I've been Post-It's major income! That's
actually why now I use NoteTab Pro; I have their PHP and SQL libraries
and clips, plus created my own abbreviated clip for often used
statements. They make it easy to create your own clip libraries. It has
a section for "learned" and one for "new" statements, both of which are
complete with formatting, such as:

A complete Form start set of code, with or without the html, body, div,
etc.
End form, body, html, and optionally <div> tags.
$ = check_input("$"); [one of several functions ]
/*
*/
<br />
"<br />"
.." <br />
$_SESSION[""]=$_POST[""];
autofocus = "autofocus"

to mention just a few of them at random.
They save a tremendous amount of typing for me, meaning less time to
forget something during the process of coding, even though I'm a
touch-typist, and I try hard to use a lot of comments.

Where I get in trouble is when I have to go back and edit for whatever
reason, and lose a parens or curly bracket in the process. And when I
get tired without realizing it I manage to compound those errors. e.g.
I'll add something that appears to work, and then a few tests later
added something where the earlier error became obvious.Fortunately I
like coding and am always after ways to help myself but ...

I also occasionally use NotePad++ too; it automatically displays tag
matching by just hovering the mouse over one.
Both NoteTab & NotePad++ know when a file they have open has been
modified and won't let you do anything until you tell it to reload or
keep what it has in memory. The two are competitively equal except
NotePad doesn't seem to have any capability to create libraries or code
clips.

I have other apps but none (yet) that come close to NoteTab Pro. IMO, at
least.

Cheers,

Twayne`
