Is there any plugin to view rpg, rpgle or database files (obtained from as-400 server) in highlighted syntax in Sublime text 2 editor.
Also, are there any good plugin projects available that I can modify to create my own plugin and share?
A quick Google search is enough to convince me that there is no such language binding available. If you want to create your own, I think this would be a good place to start
My colleague Pete Smith has written a simple but very usable plugin for Sublime Text 3 extending the existing Icebreak language definition, although I will warn you that it is functionally quite specific to our development environment - we use SEE/Change. I am certain that PRs are welcome!

I've downloaded Githubs Atom Editor and I can't seem to figure out any way on creating projects.
I currently use Sublime Text 3, I've added some packages to it which allow FTP and I'm able to create Directories and sites as it has a built in Project Manager.
I've been looking over the internet for a while now and can't find any help from the following.
Does Atom have a built in FTP?
How to create projects/sites like in Sublime Text 3?
Does everything sync to your Github?
Apologies is this has been asked or seems irrelevant but I am looking for assistance in using the new Atom Editor.
Out of the box atom does provide some project view if you open (⌘O) a directory instead of a file:
I've recently been trying new editors as well. I have been switching between Atom, Brackets, and Sublime Text 3. They have many similarities, as you probably have noticed. Atom doesn't come with very much out of the box, just like Sublime Text, but just like Sublime Text it's highly extendable using its built in package manager.
Atom's Package Manager is found in the Preferences (⌘,). Then select the Packages tab on the left.
Currently there isn't an ftp package, but chances are it's only a matter of time. If you're using FTP for deployment git provides a much better/safer workflow with not a whole lot of overhead to get set up....But that's another topic I won't dive into here.
There are a couple pretty nice project manager packages that would give you a similar experience to Sublime Text's projects:
As far as git integration goes it's a similar situation to project management. It has a few nice features built in (Open in Github, highlighting files with pending changes, etc...), but there are a few nice packages that can really make Atom's git integrations pretty verbose.
Hope this helps, good luck
I tried to analyze a swing application. It's an old project and it has been growing over years, so it's very hard to read the code. Now we should redesign the application.
Now I'm looking for an Eclipse plugin which could me support to understand this application. Here what kind of plugin I'm looking for:
start application from Eclipse in debug mode
I run in the application to a point
I start the record in Eclipse plugin
I run some kind of business logic in the application
I stop the record
the tool shows me, which code is used or not during the record
Does someone know if this kind of plugin exists?
Cheers

Not a specific plugin, but you can get something what you want by smartly placing breakpoints:
For example to find where the action listener code is for a button, set a break point in the ActionEvent constructor just before you press the button. Then you can step forward until you get to the listener.
You could also use VisualVM (or other profiler) to do CPU sampling while you take your action and then look in which code the CPU time was spent (in the EDT for the Swing GUI specifically).
It sounds like a coverage tool that can be switched on and off at runtime. I don't think this is possible with Emma or Cobertura; best guess is to use these for unit tests (or small test applications that only use partial functionality) and hide any unused types to get partial views. But that may not work well when you want to understand GUI actions and responses.
Even if it is not exactly part of your question I would recommend to have a look into the X-Ray plugin which helped me a lot with a legacy application.
Oh, and Eclipsecolorer Profiler helped... but the project is not active any more.
I'm trying to make use of Eclipse to be my primary tool for making websites, but I'm looking for a functionality that exists in Dreamweaver - html attributes sugestions. Is there any plugin that would enable that?
I'm already using HTML Tidy for checking the syntax. (I was going to use it to format, but I cannot get used to code being so tighthly formatted.)
Take a look at Aptana Studio
There are few versions (2nd, 3rd, 2nd for Ruby support); the 3rd one is still beta. It can be used as it is, or can be installed as plugin for your Eclipse.
IMHO this is the best plugin if you need to use HTML/CSS/JavaScript and do it in Eclipse IDE (the reason does not matter :)
UPDATE: just forgot to mention that it has built-in support for popular JS frameworks (like YUI, jQuery, etc.).
I need to write a browser plugin to communicate with another process, and it seems I have to use NPAPI plugins. Is there any example or open source NPAPI plugin I can refer to?
Many thanks for your reply.

2 and 3 are both frameworks to make plugin development easier.
I found one example at
http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/modules/plugin/samples/
you could also use the open source FireBreath plugin framework; they are nearing a 1.0 release for windows only, but it would not be hard to port it to linux; mac os shouldn't be bad either, but it will take a little work to get CMake to generate the correct bundle type =]
Yes, I am one of the primary maintainers, so I'm a bit biased. You can also find some good general information on how NPAPI works on my blog, starting here:

I need to write on-line help (Eclipse help format) for an Eclipse plugin. I tried out the evaluation of Help Composer that comes as part of RCP Developer from Instantiations and it pretty much does what I am looking for. However at $500 per license it's way overkill and over budget for my needs.
Surely there must be some other tool for managing the help project, assembling the various files, table of contents, and editing the html documents using WYSIWYG.
Does anybody have any suggestions for what plugin(s) I should add to a basic Eclipse 3.5 install to give me full authoring capability?
Thanks in advance!
I know that my solution is not entirely what you need, but you should have a look at Mylyn Wikitext .
It uses a simple markup with good editor support and is also capable of exporting to Eclipse Help format.
I gave up looking for free since all the available tools have a lot of shortcomings.
I decided to use Adobe RoboHelp 8 since it has one of the nicest editors that I found. However, the main benefit for me has been that it automatically updates links in all pages if I rename or move a topic (which I do a lot).
When I want to generate the Eclipse Help file, I use the script that they provide.
For a large documentation project, we used Latex in combination with plastex. This allowed us to generate PDF, Eclipse Help and HTML from the same sources. Cross Referencing, which seems like an issue for some readers, is handled, as well as indexing and other cool stuff. Getting it to work was a bit tedious, but it was a good solution, as the documentation contained a lot of formulas.
This was an open source project, so everything is available - feel free to use and adapt as you see fit:
Result (HTML, PDF, Eclipse Help: http://handbook.event-b.org/
Code: https://sourceforge.net/p/rodin-b-sharp/svn/HEAD/tree/trunk/Handbook/
I don't think it exists in eclipse, but try the MS one (free):
Here is the info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms670169(VS.85).aspx
Here is the download: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=00535334-c8a6-452f-9aa0-d597d16580cc
Then you can convert to eclipse format: http://home.amnet.net.au/~ghannington/hh2e/hh2e-readme.html
