Hello all you php coders out there,
I'm doing an Open Source text editor (just a hobby) that's designed
for PHP developers and is accessible through the web. This has been
stewing for a while, and has gotten to the point where I can use it
for my own work. I would like any feedback on things that people
really like/dislike about their current editors, as I believe some of
these things could be resolved in mine.
I currently have username/password protection (with Salted-Hash
passwords), a file-system browser, file loading/saving, and syntax
highlighting -- and these things seem to work reasonably well. As
well, most things about the editor are scriptable with JavaScript.
This would seem to imply that in a few weeks I would have something
useful. So I would like to get some feedback on what features people
would most want, since I am still at a very flexible stage in
development.
If you would like to see what I have, you can go to
un1tware.wordpress.com. You can also peruse the code at github.com/
bhus/scriptr. In particular, the README on github gives a little bit
better rationality for why something like this might be useful, and
how things are currently structured.
