  Pros

  I love SlickEdit. I have been using it for years. I originally got it for the brief emulation. Now, I use it at the core of my web development environtment. This is an source code editor, and build environment, not a WYSIWYG editor. Features included are to numerous to list, but a few of my favorites are:

  1) super fast load time

  2) tagging (support for autocomplete and java docs as you code)

  3) built in FTP client

  4) simple and intuitive look and feel.

  5) truely multi-language multi-platform.

  6) does not force u into its concept of an environment or deployment methodology. U set it up the way U want it to work.

  Cons

  Lagging tools like MyEclipse for support of things like:

  1) lack built in struts config file generation.

  2) lack of convenience utilities like generation of setters and getters for beans.

  3) lack of SQL/Database browser and schema generator.
