Looking for a KATE replacement
Hey everyone, When I started using FreeBSD for desktop usage ( about a year ago ) I used KDE as desktop manager, but now I am using XFCE4.2.1 for that purpose. But when writing html pages, scripts, programs etc I still use KATE ( KDE Advanced Text Editor ), the thing is that it starts up realy slow ( probably because it has to load a lot of basic kde stuff ). So the question was does anyone know a good graphical replacement for Kate, I esspecially like the bar on the left which lets you easily switch between multiple files, and the build in terminalclient on the bottom. I tried looking in the ports/editors section but there are that many editors I realy don't know what to use. I am looking for a graphical editor, not commandline ( therefor I allready use joe ). So anyone ideas ? thanks in advance Frank Staals ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It is a bit more primitive than kate, but loads very quickly, and knows about the syntax of a good variety of languages, colouring the text in a useful way (you can of course turn this off if it doesn't turn you on...) It is in the ports collection under /usr/ports/editors. Gedit is the GNOME equivalent of kate, but it is also slow to load. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So anyone ideas ? I'm not terribly fond of the gui editors myself - I'm pretty fanatical about vim. Still, you might find that gvim gives you what you want. It's installed with the vim port, so you'll have a quick commandline editor to boot - should you ever get sick of that mouse.
