Reading the QScintilla code and the Notepad++ code, I had some ideas. In future if HbIDE fails to fit my needs and I still wants more than Notepad++ or another general code editor, I could write a full featured code editor specific to Harbour programmers (based on Scintilla/NP++ or from scratch using QScintila) or I could write extensions for NP++ providing features to Harbour developers. It would be almost an IDE.
I considered write extensions to VS or another full featured IDE, but no, thanks :-) All them are too heavy-weighted to my taste and the difficulty is almost the same than write an "almost IDE"* with [Q]Scintilla. I have no time this year to this big job. My very first choice still being HbIDE. I like the idea to have an IDE written in Harbour. Trying to write another IDE will be my last option.
