Anyone have any good suggestions for an IDE in linux? All I'm really looking for is a project explorer, and a code explore.

I've been using Gedit for quite a while. It works nicely but having all my files within the editor would be nice, right now I have to go to a folder to open them up.

I mainly write my web code in PHP, but I'm starting to learn Java and Python.

i usually use bluefish for web related files and anjuta for programming, but eclipse is quite expansive in it's abilities

I love Kate when I'm on *nix systems. She's fantastic.

For lightweight stuff, I recently switched from Bluefish to Geany.

Other than that, Eclipse is arguably the best IDE on any platform.

Eclipse is fantastic, but if one is only looking for something with file management and/or simple project management, there are plenty of other, much more lightweight editors out there.

Eclipse can do pretty much anything with the right plugin ;)

Indeed, the PHP plugin works really well. Never got around to trying JSEclipse (now owned by Adobe).

In honesty though, it's a little heavyweight for most of my work, I prefer something lighter, as mentioned by others above.

I use Geany for almost everything script related. I think what you may be looking for though is the "File Browser Pane" plugin for Gedit. Depending on your distro, you should be able to just go to Edit > Preferences > Plugins and enable it there, then enable it under View > Side Pane.

Ya, that basically does it. I've learned to live with out the code explorer. It helps me organize my code not having it.
