For me, all what I want in a text editor is
- Lightweight
- Fast
- Provides a good and fast movement trought the text
I don't ask too much to a text editor, just the ability to _edit_ text files.
Hey, i am talking about vi :), but i use joe too.
Some other features, like find the "}" who closes this "{"
are great, and very useful, but when i think of it, i think in a programing IDE (Komodo is my favorite to the moment), not in a text editor.
Anyway, that was just my opinion, and EvanK good luck with your project.
Dreams they just disapear into the shadows,

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
