3. I'd like Vim windows, Emacs windows and Inkscape windows to *be*

I've been thinking it would be nice to tighten integration between @svg
being shown in a Leo window and editing it in Inkscape.  Given that
Inkscape's in GTK, not Qt, I don't imagine any easy window embedding,
but calling Inkscape and monitoring a file for changes would be doable.

Would be nice to have some kind of @figure of @image that loads and image viewer with the capabilities of Qt for image preview inside the Leo Body pane (or other similar component) and in the same way that we have "edit with..." for text content, have an "edit with" for graphical content. Saving versions of the files would be a nice plus.

In this way the metastructuring capabilities of Leo are there for "space" and "time", but you can use the right tool for the (sub)nodes editing. This kind of symbiotic approach can made Leo more valuable that trying to have the capabilities of vim or emacs or others. In that direction I suggested long time ago taking a look of Pida editor. Unfortunately the project seems abandoned and now and only an old copy of their source repository[1] is available, but it shows this kind of approach:

"""
A Python Integrated Development Environment. This IDE is different from other IDEs in that it aims to use the tools that you already use (and love).

It embeds external editors (such as the mighty Vim), and gives you access to your source code using any one of the open source version control systems.

With additional funky features such as Paste Bin integration, on the fly python source code checking, source browsing and even GUI designer integration, PIDA plans to be the IDE of the future, grabbing both ends of the development spectrum from uber-command-line-guru to Microsoft's Visual Studio zealots.
"""

Just more food for thought with some references :-)

Cheers,

Offray

Interesting... PyPI has a newer version of Pida available: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pida/0.6.2

I'll take a look :)

Thanks!
