Hi Guys,
it seems more and more peolple like the idea of the ideal editor. still we need to as the question do we create the ide from nothing or do we build onto existing code. from my point of view it seems better to start over from scratch and learn from all prevoius attempts.
Ok i agree this will be more work and take more time than just use whats allready there. I think we will get a better ide this way.
and of course what platform should it run on? linux/windows both. i thinks this should be taken into account.
maybe c++ sounds the right way to go but i know from experience that c++ is fast but takes much more time to establish something then for example using c#.
with the idea of having an ide that should run on linux as on windows i propose to use the mono framework(using c#). to do this kind of stuff. you will be supprised how fast some parts can be coded in a short period of time.
but this is my idea. i just wanted to get the discussion started. hope to hear some good arguments what language is best to do the editor in.

Hi, I am a Web Application Engineer for content management system.
(all windows). I try to do all my work out side of work in php and mysql.
I like many of the others hear have tried many editors and ide's. They are all difficult to set up and poor documentation included. So I can offer testing on windows platform, and I can write good how to documentation.
My expertise is more in window server environment so maybe i can help on that platform. I am not a hard core programmer but love to learn more.
I would suggest something that is easy to install. Good how-to documentation. Easy configuration. All the other ideas I see here in this forum are important too. As for an editor AWS was good and lite(loaded fast) I don't know if its even around any more or maybe Context took this over.
Anyway I am in at anything I might be able to lend a hand in.
