You're not alone in this feeling.
David Guy had this feeling too, and produced the 'TextGUI'
It is identically to the qbasic editor. Has content-sensitive help
and will allow you to have multiple files open. It uses the same keys
like the QBasic editor (F5-Run for example) and has syntax coloring.
And yes, you can also browse directories and select the file you
want to open.
You can find it at several places... you the Euphoria FTP or at
Euphoria's Official HomePage (RDS)..
It has full commented source and does some very advanced tricks and
stuff (like svga memcoping, really !!)
It can run in text-mode and in a couple of other GRAPHICAL modes :)
And all parts of the code can be used in your programs too, cause
there in seperate libraries..
