You are the master of HbIDE, you need to care about HbIDE. Because you are the master and not me, you need take decisions to take HbIDE to best result. I can't say what you should do to the best interest of HbIDE, you need to think about what you want to its future, what problems you will face in future, how you will find solutions to them. You often state about QPlainTextEdit and other widgets as a limitation to implement some features. QScintilla brings new possibilities? You need think about this. You need looking for a solution to HbIDE, not a solution to Harbour, this will be the consequence. You need to decide only thinking about HbIDE requirements. Do what HbIDE needs. Are you sure the QScintilla is the solution? Are you sure you can achieve all HbIDE goals without QScintilla? You don't ask to anyone what they think about QScintilla, it's ok, it's your call, but it looks like you decide without thinking and give up without balance and search alternatives when you found an obstacle. Pick QScintilla or not is a very important strategic decision to make. Viktor didn't close the doors, just put some rules. If they are too much, you have alternatives to make HbIDE a terrific product. I am afraid you are making decisions without balance the technical needs. If HbIDE fails I will use generic editors to handling Harbour code or I will need write my own editor. Both are bad solutions to me. I need HbIDE in right direction. In moments when you refuse some feature without a good reason denying the obvious solution I see the wrong direction. In moments like this topic I see no direction to HbIDE. I would use QScintilla to build a code editor, but only you can say if QScintilla is the answer to HbIDE requirements. What's the best to HbIDE? []'s Maniero
