Most of my work for the last 40+ years has involved vanilla editor features. The preface <http://leoeditor.com/preface.html> lists the features that *aren't* just standard features. I'll continue to support Leo for as long as I am able, but the real challenge is to create fundamentally new *Leonine* features. But I'm not looking for any new features, because Leo already matches my work flow perfectly. In other words, I know of no big problems that need solving within Leo. Absent such problems, invention is unlikely. I'll say more about what I am likely to do next in another thread. Edward P.S. Most of the vanilla editor work could have been avoided had I used emacs as a base. In that case, the work involved would have been comparable to creating emacs org mode. But I don't regret that work! Features like @button, @shadow, and @clean could not have happened without Leo's other devs. EKR -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
