Processing's PDE interface is just fine when you're first learning to code, but if you ever use a more advanced IDE, you'll quickly become spoiled with various features. Refactoring (renaming classes/functions/variables across multiple files in a project), syntax highlighting (color coded elements), and auto-completion/auto-suggestion of function elements are a few.

Here are the steps I used to work with Processing using Eclipse. Eclipse is one of the best, all-purpose (C, C++, Java, PHP, HTML, etc), open-source, and "free" IDEs available.
You're all set!
