Subject: ANN: IDEKit - Framework for programmer editors

IDEKit is an open source (LGPL) framework designed to make writting 
"source code" editors easier, as well as provide some of the basic 
"wiring" for an entire IDE.

It provides things such as syntax coloring, line numbers, function 
popups, split views, even support for setting break-points in code, 
language plug-ins, and some "interesting" macro capabilities (which 
can be used to provide simple code-completion).  It also provides the 
basics for making a Codewarrior style project view (with heirarchical 
groups, multiple targets with depedancies, target settings & 
preferences, serializing to a text file, symbol management for the 
editor coloring/jump  to definition, etc...)

It is still fairly rough (which is why it is a 0.1 version), but the 
editor portion is fairly solid (the project management half has more 
gaps).

It comes with plugins for C/C++/Obj-C/Obj-C++, as well as Python, and 
a simple "TextImp" editor built on it.  There is also source code 
available for a Python IDE (PyOXIDE) for a larger example of it's use.
