I've been using ActiveState Komodo for the last 4 or 5 years. The 4.x series runs well on FreeBSD. The newer 5 series runs but I can't get it to debug. I use it on FreeBSD and Windows it cost 250 or so if I recall. ZendStudio is pretty good also but if I recall is more pricey but may company paid for it. You can download it and I think it has version that are free. The best thing about the above two are the offer debugging of PHP on remote servers. The ActiveState product supports more languages as I use it also for Python - which I'm attempting to move my PHP development to also. Bluefish is free and in the ports and it just offers code highlighting and I think completion. It more of a general web language IDE. HTH.
