  • Another editor test!

    From Thom Miller@21:2/145 to All on Wed Apr 12 22:16:03 2023
    Okay! Here's a test of IceEdit. I've turned off the 'soft carriage returns'
    and am just letting 'word wrap' do its thing. I think I need to edit some of the defaults for this, though. It's randomly making some letters blue, some letters grey! It's all over the place! Oh, those wacky 1990's developers! And now 1990 is bright blue for some reason! Calm yourself, IceEdit.

    Looks good! And, yep, that's the IceEdit style of things. =)

    Best regards

    Great! Onto the next crisis, then, I guess! :D

    Ah IceEdit, that was a good editor :)

    So far my only complaint is that the spellcheck is *ridiculously* slow. The
    two editors I tried before (gEdit and DCTedit) both ran the spell check
    without any issues, but it's a..struggle with IceEdit. I need to got check my configuration and see if I messed something up.

    A while ago I saw that another developer bought IceEdit, and the next version was released as QuikEdit.
