Hey this is outta context in a way, but goes back to some of the original OPs on this thread. I've been a CoffeeCup customer/user since the original public release of the Editor. I've had, I think, six different accounts under different names. The present one about five or six years (maybe less). I've made minor comments about the change from life long free upgrades, had small discussion with Scott about it, commented about life time of the Editor and such.
But, guys and gals, get freaking over it. Times and business models change. I want CoffeeCup to stay in business. No, I don't agree with everything they're done. But, they have done more things right than wrong! I've been around since before "gropher" my first, more or less, browser was Mosaic when first released. Of all the companies, here, now and gone, CC is still the friendliest, and offers the best support I've received in all those years. Period!
AND, if you don't want to pay for the upgrade -- then, PLEASE, just use a text editor (note pad works), or if feeling adventurous, one of the free, more appealing text editors such as EditPad. Want to be a bit more fancy? Then load/install one of the server setups on your PC to use as a test bed, such as: WAMP, XAMMP and several others. All great ways to develop sites.
Rant Over..... Man, that felt goooooooooood!!!!! CUL

I think your right TomH in best part, but if people are like me and don't want to pay for this upgrade why leave CC? The upgrade of the HTML editor to v14 is not a big enough jump to my eyes apart from one app, I've tried it out and there's very little difference between them. However in time when there is more upgrades there maybe things that really are of benefit to me personally, but I'm not leaving CC. On your Linux point, count that 3
I've used Linux on the PC for goodness knows how long and it would be good to have the editor on there, even a scaled down one would be good..
