Having different names for the various windows in different IDEs will make it 
difficult to explain and confusing to understand instructions about how to "do 
stuff" in the IDEs:

Current terminology describing windows in various IDEs:
       Jwd:     ijx window
       Gtk:     Term window
       JHS:     ijx or jijx window
       
       Jwd:     ijs window
       Gtk:     Edit window (or Tab in Edit window)
       JHS:     ijs or jijs window

I think they should ideally all be the same, although given that ijx and ijs 
are perhaps a little cryptic for new users IMO, there is perhaps a case for 
change in J7.  However if they are going to change for J7 then they should at 
least be consistent across J7 IDEs.
