That's my 2 cents on the editor debate.

This is the whole point Jeremy!

Most people who ever going to use Euphoria are not like you. And they will never ever have your skills in programming!
When you create a language, a tool - create it for the users - not for your self only.

How many people have your skills? think about it. Most of us don't have even half of it.
We are good, bad, or best in totally different areas in life.

Once I wrote a control panel for some industrial machine, I spent weeks, covered with carbon black all over my body, just to realize what the workers have to go through in their daily job. I was sweating, my eyes were covered with dust, I could hardly see the monitor, the noise was terrible, - and most of all, a little mistake could cause an accident, even death of one of the workers.

Only then I started to write the control panel.
That control panel last until today, many years after.

Again, think about the one who's going to use your product. It can be just anyone.

Shian.
