Ken, are you still running the Moonshine IDE? I'm lookin' for a
programmers editor (if I can't get ed to behave).
The thing I like about ed is that it will convert from DOS to Linux.
Other editors just leave the dumb DOS stuff in there and that can screw
things up. :/

Believe it or not ed, or rather my personalized
version of ed is my favorite editor under any
platform. As I mentioned before, I have been able to
satisfactorily modify keycodes and such for ed running
under the gnome-terminal - it doesn't have as many of
those multiple keycode combinations for the special
function keys.
Nope, don't use Moonshine anymore - I got tired of
messing with the mouse. And Moonshine doesn't seem to
be actively supported anymore either - so I don't
recommend it.
Irv Mullins I think posted a syntax support file for
the K Advanced Editor ( Kate ) that works fine if you
want a GUI editor.
Also, for a GUI editor, Scintilla or a modified
version of Karl Bochert's Bach Scintilla might work
pretty well, I believe it could be configured to
execute euphoria code directly from the editor.

I use only Kate now, and never see a command line.
It's just much more productive.
If you want to use a text mode editor, however, Dave Cuny's
EE works well. There are a couple of small bugs which still
need fixing (just so you'll have something to do :)
