There will be a Google Summer of Code again in 2009. I don't plan (lack of time, lack of enthusiasm) to do anything towards participating unless we happen to come across one or more developers who want to work towards "real" folding in nedit (and more specifically (yet still vague ;-), something that will meet or can (at least eventually) be adapted to my needs).
I just wanted to let the list know so that no one waits on me to initiate something. I will try to help if someone does want to work toward GSOC 2009 participation I'm not giving up on folding in nedit, but at least until tax season is over I've got things I need to deal with. I do understand some of the things in the scite / scintilla family have folding and some or all of the other editor features I want (a macro programming language, keystroke recording of macros, "fast" (I looked at jedit and actually tried it out--it is too slow and the need for the java stuff is too much overhead), ...), so another thing on my agenda is to try scite / scintilla on my next distro installation (Mandriva2006 doesn't seem to have rpms for scite / scintilla). I say scite / scintilla for a few reasons, one of the two is sort of an editing engine / widget (iiuc), the other is an editor, and there are other editors that use the editing engine / widget, so one of those might turn out to be what I'm looking for.) There is a FAQ for GSOC at: http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2009/faqs.html Google is accepting mentoring applications between March 9th and 13th.
