For example, when I type the first of the parenthesis in Aptana, the second appears immediately, then I need only to press enter, it makes some white space, and I can type further. A small feature that saves a lot of time!

But in Firebug it is not. So, is it possible to use that feature in Firebug? Is there any Firebug's plugin that allows to do that?

Thanks in advance)

A: 

I use the Web Developer plugin for my CSS editing. While Firebug is nice for quickly testing out one or two things, getting the styles out of firebug and back into your source file has always seemed like a pain to me.

With the Web Developer plugin (CSS -> Edit CSS), you can setup your whole stylesheet and see it take effect live. You can save your changes using the save button, or what I do is copy everything and paste it into my file. I know this isn't a "fancy" IDE, with autocomplete or brace-balancing (it's just like Notepad), but I can accept that because of how nice it is to just type away unhindered and see the changes instantly. (And easier to save your work than it is with Firebug.)
