World: r3wp

textmate eats less memory and the initial load time is shorter, but 
it's mac only, doesnt handle double with characters and gets confused 
by the proportional font too.

+1 for Sublime Edit 2

AdrianS: do u have an updated version of the rebol syntax definition 
for it? the one i found in some article from last year doesnt seem 
to color it nicely. i can only see the strings, files colored but 
not any default words.


also what is the recommended way to prioretize the rebol syntax as 
the default over the R one?

btw, im using Verdana as the proportional font for source code. does 
anyone else have a better recommendation?

Can it do vertical/column selection?

no code folding...

but the minimap leftside looks like a nice feature. would like to 
have this with scite.

Pekr: yes, and it knows the multi-line edit too, just like textmate

TomBon: code folding would require code analysis. i don't expect 
a generic code editor go that far. if u really miss folding, go and 
suck with some bloatware IDE and suffer from all it's pitfalls...


i would rather organize my code in a way where folding wouldnt help 
much with reading...

i was looking for an editor primarily to write code, not to read 
others' crap. i forgot to tell sublime is only a good choice in this 
case

when i write rebol / bash codet, i try to stick with 1-4 lines of 
code for each function.

even in javascript i don't do over 10lines. so there is not much 
to fold on it...

onetom, well...just a moment...just sucking heavy on scite & geany 
currently all nice delivered cross-plattformed in 1.5 mb ready to 
use WITH code folding.  :-))))

url to the dmg file?

i see u were contributing to a thread which started as a "scite on 
mac" topic and turned into an "oh, wait, it's not that obvious how 
to get gtk for a mac" pondering

i don't like this kind of cross-platformenss, where u have to sweat 
blood to get something on certain platforms...

really? hmmm..mac? when? where?

i tried gedit too recently on a mac. luckily there was a binary version, 
because the compilation segfaulted... well, it's quite nice. i could 
see that as an open source alternative, but despite of the fact it's 
supposed to support utf-8, it didn't...

neither it allowed me to use chinese input method

scite is dual-platform only and geany has windows binaries only according 
to their official site.
why do u have to bullshit us saying it's crossplatform?
even this sublime thing was windows only until last year!

that was the only reason i mentioned it here, because the same version 
is available on the 3 major platforms (with proper font handling, 
unlike rebol..)

well both are win and x,  mac is no major platform. it's a toy ;-)

hja, okay, sorry... now i know why has it been made so durable... 
so kids cant break it easily... unlike the other 2 systems ;P

harr..harr..harr...YES!

you have to add my BSD to your list also or not?

thats not a separate platform, that's x... ;p

but true, it would be nice if they would support freebsd at least, 
however very little ppl use freebsd as a desktop, i would think..

then you mac isn't either...

yes, BSD is mainly server but can be a great desktop also, esp. if 
you look to your mac screen...

Some of you already found the Syllable interview I was recently asked 
to do by IDG on Slashdot. The original article is on TechWorld:

http://www.techworld.com.au/article/398891/syllable_os_developer_interview_building_better_operating_system/

The full interview is here:

http://www.techworld.com.au/article/398892/developer_q_syllable_os/

I was also asked about the Amiga, and I put REBOL and Red in there, 
too

It's been relayed on OSNews now:

Tamas - I actually don't use Sublime Edit for Rebol these days. The 
syntax file I have is from SE 1 - not sure it would work with 2 or 
how much it colored various keywords. If you want I can zip up what 
I have and you can try it out.

AdrianS: u did't get my private messages?

but zip it up please together with the color theme which worked for 
u

An article on software liability laws.

Love it............and yeah, not going to happen.

It's just bits and bytes set in a certain way, and they can be changed 
anytime. From a philosophical viewpoint, there's something fundamental 
different between software and a house.

Actually - from any viewpoint, I guess.

red thread is rolling quickly so not to be overlooked: interresting 
toy for cheap: http://www.raspberrypi.org/ARM based 700MHz core 
256MB RAM 100 Mb Lan 2 USB ports, SD card reader  some (not exactly 
stated how many) GPIO, 1W power under full load, Quake3 and HD movie 
playing demonstrated. Linux supported from producer, but architecture 
not restricted to linux only.

could this be the project Carl is working on !? it is an embedded 
linux, its also more TV than computer since it supports only TV outputs. 
 Carl's low memory using Amiga Exec Background would make him a prime 
candidate for working on this project which has to boot Linux and 
allow HD decoding within only 128 MB (os+gpu Shared) RAM .

It's not the project he's working on.

They're shipping Ubuntu

The movie demos they did so far used their own player thingie. It's 
likely the standard Linux players won't cut it on Ubuntu in the provided 
memory

Hmm... POE would be nice
