I am very much a fan of text editors with good GUIs combined with good functionality.
I use text editors extensively for HTML and for CGI scripting (but I am not a C++
programmer.)
I would very much like to see a text editor with the following: two "drop zones" where
you can drag and drop new words that should be highlighted in a script. One drop
zone would be for words universal to the type of file you are writing in (.r, .html,
.pl)
and the other drop zone would be for words local to the specific file you are writing.
After dragging a new word to the drop zone, you would choose the type of
highlighting preferred from a drop-down menu.
What do you think?
