Source code editor based on xBrowse
Posted: Thu Oct 17, 2019 03:47 PM

Hello,

I'm wondering if it makes sense to build a source code editor based on xBrowse.

I've done a small test program and am amazed by how performant xBrowse works as an editor.

The benefits I see are that you can link to every source code line actions like:
documentation, the status of the program line like source tested, date and time,
open a dialog eg autocode to edit the line, different fonts in a line, wordlists with action, eg format in practice all you can think.
Especially for mod harbour, we need wordlists for harbour, html and javascript simultaneous.

And as many of us are beginners with html and js much documentation is needed.

What do you think.

Best regards
Otto
