Welcome to Maguma Workbench 2. We hope to provide you with a useful development environment... Please go on and read some more of these tips to get an overview of the functionality this program provides. First steps: 1.) Go to menu "Tools" -> "Options" to bring up the Preferences and customize the editor to suite your own needs, then set up PHP Parsing and possibly external browsers and FTP configuration.
You can create and maintain projects in the "Workspace" to manage your project files. Check the "Project" menu and the buttons in the Workspace window. You can also import local directories or remote files.
Maguma Workbench 2 supports Xdebug debugging. In order to debug with Xdebug you need to install Xdebug first and configure it, see the Readme or the FAQ.
The class browser can be sorted in different modes using the toolbuttons contained in the ClassBrowser panel.
The "Tools" menu provides several handy functions for text manipulation and file handling.
You can pull up the PHP code completion by pressing Ctrl+Space, the code completion now also supports custom function embedded in the current script.
To use external browsers, configure Workbench first. Go to the "Tools" -> "Options" menu, and then to "External Browsers", add a new browser with the corresponding button.
Workbench 2 supports two different bookmark modes. A "number mode", Ctrl+[0..9] to jump to bookmark and Ctrl+Shift+[0..9] to set it, and a "flag mode", Ctrl+F2 sets the bookmark, F2 jumps to next bookmark and Shift+F2 to previous.
Workbench 2 supports auto-expanded text blocks. Type in an abbreviation, e.g. classf for "a class with function", and hit Ctrl+J to expand it. See the "Text blocks" section in the "Options" dialog.
To consolidate extra windows into one panel go to the Options and click on the "Multiview" section and combine the panels into one tabbed view by adding them to the right column.
