I use this exact setup. I also uploaded Textpad clip libraries and syntax coloring for mivascript .mv and .mvt files to their website (a bit out of date now)

If I am not mistaken, they are _very_ out of date.

What do the folks at Miva do?

We use a variety of different editors. I personally use vim with its basic HTML syntax highlighting and the ":make" command to invoke the compiler. We all compile directly in the web root of our development machines, so there's no deployment required to run the code.

A couple of us use SublimeText. Here is a GitHub repository with syntax highlighting and auto-complete commands for MivaScript.

We build through terminal in the root of our HTML folders. Another way to deploy files to a remote server is use the scp command. I would do something like the following in terminal:

make && scp file_to_be_copied.mvc server_to_copy_to:/path_to/place_file

so it would realistically look something like

make && scp lib/util_public.mvc myserver.com:/var/www/html/mm5/5.00/lib

This would make the file and then copy it directly to your server. If you have SSH keys and a .ssh/config file setup properly, you can do all of this without ever entering a username and password either.
