I've been writing a new editor using arwen (included).

The first public showing is now available:

http://palacebuilders.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/euphoria.html

Alpha version. No file save. No delete, return, undo/redo...

I am concentrating on the GUI part & syntax highlighting and
would appreciate feedback concentrated on that aspect.

Thanks to ARWEN, performance is astonishing:

		load win32lib	cursor to line 300	page down to end of file
MEditor		13 secs			1 min 40 (!!)		3 mins 14 secs
Crimson		18 secs			  44 secs			3 mins 13 secs
CodeGenie	 2 secs			   8 secs			1 min 30 secs
Edita		 2 secs			   8 secs			13 secs

What is important to people?
A pretty icon toolbar?
An explorer treeview?
A project manager?
SCCS-style source control system?
Capturing DOS output in an editor pane?
A layout designer (as opposed to a complete IDE)?

Proof-of-concept programs for any of the above might help!

Regards,
Pete
