  Description     : standalone code editor written in JavaScript

 Ace (Ajax.org Cloud9 Editor) is a code editor written in JavaScript.
 .
 Ace is intended to match or exceed the features, usability and performance of
 native editors such as TextMate, Vim or Eclipse. It is the primary editor for
 Cloud9 IDE and is the successor of the Mozilla Skywriter (Bespin) Project.

Recent versions of openqa depend upon this, using it as the editor for editing
YAML templates and the like, so I need it in order to keep openqa up to date.

The upstream calls this simply 'ace' whereas npm calls it 'ace-code'. Meanwhile
there is another npm thing called 'npm-builds' that contains the minified
products that openqa depends upon.

That being the case, I intend to call the source package 'node-ace-code' and the
binary package 'node-ace-builds' to match with what openqa is looking for.

There have been releases since 1.35.4, but I intend to package that as the first
version because that is the version that openqa currently depends upon.

It will be maintained under the Debian JavaScript Team umbrella.
