Just to clarify: Twisty was not rewrite of TxText. When Igor returned to project I already moved to my design ideas which was opposite to Igor. And I just decided to finish what I started with new project name. About long files - TxText optimization needs to be implemented in Twisty. That's all. Current design could be evolved for it. I does not know which project is better. In Twisty I implemented my practical needs: various kinds of editors. To approve which design is better someone needs to implement same in TxText and compare it with Twisty. Probably simple example of masked text could be enough. And I must mention Seamless to clarify that Nick work is not lost. He implemented important ideas on asynchronous data transfer which helps me a lot. I extracted them to separate project Basys with better abstraction which is independent from Seamless goals. It improved testability and leaded to rest of other changes.
