If I read this thread correctly, it isn't that the Rev IDE is
untrustworthy, but rather that the second typing of an enter key
closes the Rev script editor.
If basic development environments didn't have third party tools, they
wouldn't last long. Third party products exist to enrich a platform,
not because the underlying "standard" product is untrustworthy or un-
useable. It's a matter of providing more choices, extending
functionality and creating diversity--the hallmarks of evolution (or
in Richard's case "Devolution").
We have Constellation (www.daniels-mara.com/products/
constellation.htm) users who have never used the Revolution script
editor--newbies to Revolution, if you will. The same can be said of
the Metacard IDE and Devolution (Richard Gaskin's IDE). There are
also people who are using Scott Rossi's excellent tools
(www.tactilemedia.com) and have never used the "stock" object
alignnment and colorizing.

A good choice. And there's MetaCard, and devolution, and you can
roll you're own....
The problem is for Newbies. If you are learning a new environment
you really don't want to add to the learning curve by using 3rd
party tools and writing a Script Editor is way too complex a job
for a newbie. Besides all that, the reason you use an IDE is to
take the sweat out of software development, if you can't trust the
tools that come with it, well..............................
All the Best
