That's a pity.
In OSX, there's a simple text editor, a compile (typeset file) and a compile (update syntax). You must save the file before compiling it.That is OSX-specific. IWBN if this functionality were rewritten in py-gtk,so that we could indeed share it between all GUB builds.
What specifically is OSX-specific (no pun intended). The text editor and needing to save files?
Do all versions have a "compile (update syntax)" ? (this is the point I'm really interested in)
Tutorial section 2.2 still says that on Windows, you should "start up a text-editor". Is that still the case, or does GUB/windows provide a text editor?
