Eric,
The Mac IDE editor uses control instead of command
for all of cut/copy/paste and is very annoying in this way.
Command+O for open and script file would be nice instead of
control+O as would command+N instead of control+N for a new
ijs window. Also the Home and End keys are ignored. Also
there is no syntax coloring available. Also there is no
close window key which should be command+W. Less of a
problem is the lack of command+P for print.
I gather that all IDE's require shift+arrow for
moving between lines, but that is awkward, too.
And I use vi mostly because I get little extra from
J's IDE.
