I certainly think that a debugger that works like the debugger in Visual Studio, the ability to move around the code base by right clicking on methods and the like, along with decent support of various version control systems would see Padre well out front. It's just the effort to do that and the time people can commit to the effort, keeping in mind IDE's like Eclipse and Netbeans get commercial support through various companies employing people to work on it, is what will determine how long it takes for Padre to get everything we want in an IDE. But for me today, Padre does a pretty darn good job and it's what I use when I can. IT sure beats Notepad++, which to be fair does a decent job itself if all you want is syntax highlighting and a zillion options to do with text that I never ever use. > I would suggest that any feature which is not Perl specific, like the > svn and ftp stuff, will be more advanced than in Padre as we are > having to implement from scratch something which is provided for free > by the core Eclipse platform. > > Things that are more Perl specific, like the intuition and refactoring > and such, can be better. > > Adam K > > On 30 November 2010 14:40, Gabor Szabo <szab...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Shlomi, > > > > > > On Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 7:11 PM, Shlomi Fish <shlo...@iglu.org.il> wrote: > >> On Monday 29 November 2010 17:09:37 Ahmad Zawawi wrote: > >>> Hi Shlomi, > >>> > >>> Could you please provide any links of such a discussion? :) > >> > >> This is the closest I found by grepping my mailing lists' archives: > >> > >> http://mail.perl.org.il/pipermail/perl/2009-December/010704.html > > > > First of all you could have said in your original mail that you are quoting > > me > > and not "a core Padre developer".
