Quick Editor Poll
[1/9] from: dada::gecko::verizon::net at: 22-Jun-2002 22:22
Hey all,
Just thought I'd try to find out what eveyrone's using for a rebol editor.
I'm using emacs (thanks to Marcus Petersson) half the time, and the View
built-in editor the other half.
Sorry if the question seems innane. I'm fascinated with REBOL and am
trying to get a handle on how many people use it, for what, and how it
fits into their other routines (including how it's edited).
Thanks :)

I use Metapad myself. Never really needed colour coding or anything fancy -
even the windows Notepad with Win2k is fine.
In BeOS I use Styled Edit which also works fine.
I guess if I was really into lots of REBOL programming i'd probably use
Emacs as most people I've heard on the list like that or some Vi version...
James.

You might like to try Eden Kirin's conTEXT,

a good free programmers editor.

I think we've had this discussion before -- check the archives for lots of
opinions and advice on configuring various editors for Rebol syntax coloring.
Of course, there are probably more editors since the last discussion, so I
appreciate seeing new reccommendations.
I'm using CREdit right now:

-- Free
-- Small
-- Had Rebol syntax highlighting
-- But Windows only

Just trying it out now, and some Rebol words are highlighted.

Hi Sabin,
It's all over the board I think. Emacs seems popular, but I don't think
there's one clear leader at this point. I use ConTEXT, though I dream of a
killer REBOL editor written in REBOL. :)

I'm noticing that.
I was using the editor included with View, but now have switched to
emacs, as I use it for the other coding I do.
Funny that you should mention the rebol editor written in rebol. I was
thinking about that today. How cool would that be? And what a way to
promote the language.
I'm not sure how this is usually handled, but it would be cool to get a
CVS repository set up somewhere and do a group "Rebeditor" project
going. Kind of show the world how cool Rebol can be.
Just a thought. A dream.

I use vi or vim on all platforms (Solaris, HP-UX, Mac OS X, w32)
so my fingers don't have to decode the eye candy to know how to
get things done... ;-)
