Hi Frank,
I like the suggestion of Development/Editors. There are already
subcategories for types of development tools, e.g., IDEs and Source
Code Management.
System/Text Tools was intended for terminal-based commands and
applications, e.g. vi(m) and those in the SUNWdocs pkg, as in
'text-based tools.'
Applications that are constructed like GUI apps that run in their own
windows and have menubars, e.g. SUNWgobby, should probably be placed
in the Applications category. Applications that would obviously
appear in other categories, e.g. Developement, excepted. However, all
apps in the Applications category should have .desktop files so that
they appear in the Applications menu after they are installed. The
Application subcategories were chosen to match the Application submenus.
Looking at the Exuberant CTags website, they say:
"*CTags *generates an index (or /tag/) file of language objects found
in source files that allows these items to be quickly and easily
located by a text editor or other utility. A /tag/ signifies a
language object for which an index entry is available (or,
alternatively, the index entry created for that object).
Tag generation is supported for the following languages:
/Assembler, AWK, ASP, BETA, Bourne/Korn/Zsh Shell, C, C++, COBOL,
Eiffel, Fortran, Java, Lisp, Lua, Make, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python,
REXX, Ruby, S-Lang, Scheme, Tcl, Vim, and YACC./
A list of editors and tools utilizing tag files may be found here."
So in itself, it's not really an editor. Is "Development/Editors"
really the best classification?
