I love vi. I’ve been doing Flex development on Linux for about three years - mostly with vi. But to be honest when building complex applications it is nice to have things like code hinting and integrated debugging. I’m sure you *could* make vi do that with Flex but I am not brave enough to attempt to figure that out. So I’m extremely excited that Adobe is releasing a version of Flex Builder for Linux! You can download Flex Builder for Linux from the labs.adobe.com site right now!

Nice to hear that for linux users. I hope this won't be such a lone new in the following years and it becomes usual.

This version lacks EVERYTHING that Builder offers over plain text editor. Stuck with Vim or Emacs till the day Adobe stops making Linux releases just for marketing.
Adobe trick developers and that makes Adobe assholes.

Hi michaelklishin,
I don't think this was ever advertised as being the full Flex Builder on Linux. For me it provides what I need... An Eclipse debugger and code hinting. Those are things I don't have in vim.
