Re: Editor with Perl

[greenFox]

When I was playing with perl Tk a lot (previous job) I built a very simple editor quite quickly using the Tk::Text widget, I think even more sophistication could be achieved using Tk::Text::SuperText Both would be good places to start if you were considering such an endeavour.

You may also want to check this node which suggests the PerlTk text widget is superior to the GTK one.

If you do write an editory with perl embedded within it may I suggest the name clam.

I think you mean oyster.

Actually I was thinking about a "real" editor.

I started this thread to make sure I don't spent deeper thinking on something that has long before been done (probably better than I coud ;-)

It should be a substitute for nothing less than XEmacs. I mean, if it weren't I wouldn't need to change, because XEmacs is cool (yeahyeah vim is pretty well, too ... _if_ you like it ... uhumm... sorry ;-)
