Now that cut/copy/paste works in all object boxes, comments, etc. on all

data-structures + clarity of editing.

i'm not sure if viewing the struct in DS launches
the same 'Text Editor', but it is quite useful for
editing/debuging values.

as for clarity, if i am wanting to review a large
block of text, ie. a message box with a number of
initiation settings. then i find it better to do
so in its own window. i think as matju pointed out
there are a number of extra bindings that make
text editing a little easier, and perhaps these
could be expanded - such as a import / export text
button? i guess what you're suggesting is that if
i want these features, i'm better off using my
favourite text editor and hitting the cut button?

i'm not strictly opposed to removing it, but i
have been known to use this feature in the past.

cheers,

The data structures dialog is totally separate. The Text Editor is the thing you get from the Edit menu. FYI: I just added the data structures dialog to pd-gui-rewrite.
