I also appreciate it because it's nicely written. However I find a lot of things odd in this tool as far as usability goes, plus it's not a full blown IDE as we know them. I just launched it, and there is no better word: it's just odd. There is no other tool I know that present you these set of icons/function, dialog, no editor window, etc. For sure it's good once you get it, but I expect it to work like the other similar tools I know. > IMO can be right use a more recent/modern model > My proposal is follow Microsoft Visual studio 2010 The Alternative can > be eclipse or Delphi Everyone has it's personal preference, but IMO we can and should adopt the best ideas for these tools. To me it's important to keep it fast, simple, (and keyboard controllable without programming!), with intuitive defaults and only those things in the front that are really important, and executed well.
