Yeah, I keep doing the same. :-) I'm not *extremely* concerned about it starting up as fast as Nedit -- Nedit starts up *reeeeally* fast. I've tried to use kwrite for awhile, and the startup time doesn't bother me nearly as much as other stuff about it (e.g. complete lack of features). I like the Nedit scripting capability, but I'm trying to keep the number of scripting languages I know to a minimum. Too little free space in my head as it is. :-) (Same reason I won't learn elisp for Emacs.) That's why a Python-scriptable editor would be perfect. But you're right that it has no hope of starting as fast as Nedit does. > The only other thing that I disliked about Scintilla was the code folding. > I couldn't get it to behave exactly how I wanted and finally gave up on > it.

Of course, that's a pretty little nitpick. That's not really a nitpick. It would bother me a lot. It doesn't seem that hard to get right from a programming standpoint; in fact, it seems to me it'd be harder to get it wrong. Thanks, Fred -- F R E D E R I C K P O L G A R D Y J R.
