Hi Watty, Nice history lesson :)

The reason for this is that there will be users that don't use the supplied IDE, for various reasons. I don't say *each* tool *must* work without the gui. Some tools (like command completion) probably won't be integrated in an other IDE. But if we create a ctag-function for jal, please create it as a separate module *if it is not too much extra work*, so other can benefit. The only reason I can think of not to do this, if it makes the job much more complex or you loose integration or significant performance. The cost and benefits should be concidered for each tool indiviualy. My point is that we should not forget this. Stef once made a great calling tree tool that has hardly been used since it only ran on it's own gui...
