I'd love to see something like this, but there are several problems...
1.  Some people will complain that Rob should instead be working on Euphoria.

2.  Rob will probably either:
Say he is too busy
Say there are already editors available
Say he's too lazy ;) (No offense, Rob)
If you've been here a while or read the Archives you might also have noticed
that Rob is rather slow to do anything that might make more sales of Euphoria...

If it was coded in Euphoria using an xplat library like WXEU or WMOTOR, that
would take care of any cross-platform issues.

IMO tho' this is all a waste of time.  99.9999999999999999% of
ideas-proposals-suggestions by this community are either ignored by Rob or given
good-bad reasons why he won't do it.  Or 2 years later they are implemented.

I'm not complaining; I think Euphoria is ok, what I can't imagine is how Rob
puts food on the table selling Euphoria?
