CakePHP, Eclipse PHP plugin initial setting....configure .ctp file in Eclipse

I already had Eclipse 3.6 but not PHP development environment.

PHP development environment in Eclipse is called PDT.
I followed the instruction in the following page.
http://wiki.eclipse.org/PDT/Installation#From_Update_Site

Then, I wanted to use Aptana plugin.
I found the instructions in the following page.
http://docs.aptana.com/docs/index.php/Plugging_Aptana_into_an_existing_Eclipse_configuration

Now,  you want to configure .ctp(view) files in Eclipse as php files.
  • Firstly open the  Eclipse workspace.
  • Now go to Preferences from Window menu.
  • From Preference click on the General tab from the list.
  • Now click on Content-Types under General  tab.
  • On the right panel in the Content-Types, expand the Text tab.
  • Select PHP Content-Types .
  • Now click on the Add button and type the fie extension e.g. *.ctp in the content type input field.

Free SVN GUI Client for MacOS

I've been looking for free subversion client for MacOS.

I've downloaded SmartSVN.
79 USD for Professional version but Foundations version is free.
Just download and run the application.
It will tell you that once the trial period expires for professional version, it automatically downgrade to Foundation version.
I will update you once my professional trial period expires whether the Foundations version is usable.
