not happy at all with the feedback I get from this list, so the number
of downloads is all I got to see whether a stack is usefull or not.

Well, OK, you asked for more feedback .....

Initial impression:

The initial announcement said (paraphrasing) :
- Here's a super editor that does some things unspecified.
- There's no feature list, and no documentation.
- Some features aren't done yet.
- "I'm not even sure the props are set properly yet, so please do not use on a stack without
a backup."
(generally good advice - but the cavalier way it's said makes it sound much worse).
- I haven't tested it all yet (this may be a joke, not sure ?).
and finally
- it works with XOS


Since XOS is still undocumented, and you haven't yet explained (in any way I can understand) what it is or what it will do, or how it will do it), this doesn't at all help me to know what this editor will do.

Initial Conclusion - if I had a lot of free time on my hands, I might try it out - but I don't. So without some coherent description of what it is or what it does, not worth downloading it.

But since you asked for more feedback, and I can sympathize with wanting that, I downloaded it.

It runs, has a very minimal help file, which doesn't tell me what it should do, or help me to understand whether any (apparent) failure is due to
- a real problem
- a feature not yet ready
- me guessing wrong what it's supposed to do.


I know I can select different stack from the drop down list - but the list of controls includes many that are not in the selected stack. Should it ? Or is this a bug ?

I tried typing the name of a control into the filter box - and now the list includes only that control - good !
Click on it, hoping to see its script in the box below - error box says
Type : Handler: can't find handler
Object: ControlsBrowser
Line: set the defaultstack to thisstack of me
Hint: of


Clicked on Script to take a look - and this line appears just following an empty if - endif clause.

Second conclusion: it really isn't fully tested or ready for use yet; I'll wait for the documented, tested version thanks.
