Hello,
For people that are interested, here is current status of PortableStudio:
PortableStudio is my open source IDE, started a year ago. Currently
it is C# application (although it was started as Eclipse plugin). The
PortableStudio internals are highly experimental, because i like to do
things my own way.
Right now PortableStudio needs patches in pnet package, because it uses
pnet compiler (cscc) to parse c# files and it uses ilrun for debugging.
These patches are not yet ready to be commited in pnet CVS - i'll have
to work on them and pnet developer will have to accept them.
The GUI is not yet very comfortable - it's still under heavy
development. Things that work quite nice are:
- project manager - you can use incremental search for searching in
project files (methods and other stuff will follow). Portable studio
does not have traditional projects like e.g. Visual Studio, instead you
can open any Makefile.
- source editor - it is vim emebeded in C# terminal. If you know vim,
you will be comfortable here.
If you like screenshots, you can take a look here:

Most of them are old, but the flash animations should give you picture.
Compiling is right now quite tricky - you have to install patched pnet
package and you should have vim installed. Some more info in in README.
Download is available from this address:

As for future development, PortableStudio will have code completion and
navigation. Debugger is now on the way. Once these things work, i'll fix
all bugs and try to get pnet patches into CVS. After that i'll realease
PortableStudio 1.0 :) Currently deadlines at work dont allow me to work
a lot on PortableStudio, so the development is quite slow, but i hope it
will change or somebody joins PortableStudio devel team :)
I'll be glad to answer any questions.
Radek
