1. Editor for both 3 and 4

Hello everybody,
I use Edita for my Euphoria editing. The main reason being that when an error hits the following happens,
a.) The editor opens in the file where the error occurred be it an *.exw, *.ew, *.e or *.ex file.
b.) The cursor blinks on the line where the error occurred.
This makes it easier edit and fix the problems.
I like this because I program like a demolition derby. Don't worry if code is right or wrong. Just get it down on paper. Euphoria and Edita will show what(if anything) is wrong.
For some reason this only works with ver.3 Euphoria.
I would love to start using ver.4 but it takes too long(for me) to find and correct errors.
Most of newer archives are written in 4, as are most of the forum examples.
I've been fooling around with Crimson. It will run both *.exw and *.eui files. for vers. 3 and 4.
However after an error the cursor remains where it was before I ran(interpeted) the program.
Can Crimsom be preferenced to do what I want as explained above?
Is there any other editor that can do this? Beside ed.ex?

So the ex.err format has changed from 3 and 4. However, ed.ex still works. So, you only need to look at the ed.ex code to see how it now parses the ex.err file and adapt Edita or whatever you wish. It would be nice if jEdit parsed ex.err files. It doesn't at all.

I'm having the same problem.
What was the reason that ex.err changed?
It would be better not mess these things, causes much loss of time.
