OpenEuphoria

A feature I would like to see, is one where the user of an editor can jump to different places of his sources according to an ex.err file. So, after a EUPHORIA program is run, and an ex.err file is created. The editor can jump to the line of failure, and then if we could have an easy way to get to the caller's line from there and all the way up the chain that would be something indeed.

Search and replace over multiple files using regular expressions is a feature I appreciate from jEdit. However, it would be nice if it could do search and replace only in say the current EUPHORIA routine, and only in the code and comments and not inside strings. So, suppose we had checkboxes for comments, code, and strings. So you can choose any combination thereof.

Finally, it would be nice to have spell checking. In the strings, the dictionary would be the natural language of the system (or something set by the user using the system), in the code the dictionary would be the declarations, and when declaring new symbols they could check between the underscores so users don't accidentally misname variables: tihs_entry would have the 'tihs' part underlined in red on the declaration. After that the use wouldn't be a spelling mistake, but 'this_entry' would because it would mispelt. Finally, comments should have a dictionary that is a combination of this and the earlier symbols.

This goes way beyond what you can do with syntax highlighting files. I suppose it is possible to create a Jedit plugin for this. Certainly, it is possible for someone working directly with a project's source code.

That's my 2 cents. To send me 2 cents, my bitcoin address is: 1DMHNzJEhKo5Nr8v7dHp41byA8v2C67Quq :)
