I have tried texmaker, and it has built-in "intellisense" autocompletion, but it fails to find most of the packages because it seems it only recognizes the most basic latex commands.

Do you know any intellisense editor with a good base of commands, or better yet an editor that dynamically extracts syntax from yourinstalled packages?

thanx!

A: 

Have a look at KILE or TEXMAKER.

I tried texmaker... you know how to make it recognize more commands?

Not for texmaker, but Kile offers the posibility to add completenion files and some abbreviations and dictionaries through it's settings.

A: 

Perhaps try TeXworks, as you can easily add more terms to the autocomplete list.

Ok guys i think i got the answer. TexnicCenter has a "import tex commands" which searches for syntax from installed packages and then adds them to auto completion. Sweet. I prefer more minimalistic editors such as texmaker, but i think i can live with texnic.
