Yeah it does have escape filters (didn't see Blinger's post). That's mainly used for the web version as it escapes < and >.

Only thing that concerns me is that performance may be slowed down?

Im unsure how zen works so im unsure lol

Im willing to learn this as alot of time will be saved

Just installed the plugin for TextWrangler but have no idea what the key combo is to use it, since it doesn't say.

It doesn't slow down performance for me on Notepad++. It doesn't actually do anything until you tell it to, you basically write the shorthand HTML and then click "Expand Abbreviation" (or Ctrl + E) and it expands. It doesn't expand as you work.

Try writing some shorthand HTML (type html:xt) and press Ctrl + E and see if it expands.

Didn't work, also tried all the CMD and CTRL combinations, still nothing. :/

I'm not sure about the problem then, are you sure it's compatible? Maybe you can scour some Google pages for an answer!

I did download it but I couldn't be bothered with the hassle to get it working with Zend Studio. Will take a look some time later, as it seems good.

I'm with you, LOL. Old Skool ftw.

I'll stick with coding by hand, that just looks more complicated... like learning another language... to do the same job? Wut.
