Unlike vim, emacs actually parses and understands the code it's editing; this makes the syntax highlighting and indentation support much more flexible and accurate. I'd go as far as saying that the auto-indentation support for php-mode for emacs is by far the best I've worked with to date. Today, I use the phpEclipse plugin for Eclipse 3.0. I'm very happy with this. Performance is very good, the object browser works better than php-mode for Emacs did, and it's very useful indeed to be able to search all the files of a project from within the editor. There's also the advantage of being able to use other Eclipse plugins, such as support for subversion. phpEclipse is my main environment, which I use a good 8-10 hours in a working day. I tried Zend Studio about 18 months ago, but didn't like it. I found the performance was too slow (hate using software that can't keep up with my typing!), auto-indenting was inflexible (and I couldn't convince Zeev why that mattered :(, there was no subversion support, and no anti-aliased font support (tiring on the eyes when your main machine is a laptop). I haven't tried Zend Studio 4, and have no idea whether it has improved in any of these areas or not. Can't comment on a good environment for perl. Last time I used perl seriously was in '96. Things have changed a lot since then.
