Anyone know of a good code editor for X that doesn't use GTK or QT? I
would like something that displays colors (like for variables, etc). I
also don't want to use vi or any deritive or any console based editor.
Any thoughts?

Is emacs an X app? Or console based?

Well, I definately want frames and javascript. Someone gave me this
laptop to use and I want to use it for coding and a road machine...

I can type just fine :).
GLIS is pondering a rewrite in python (adding GUI for the X liveCDs). The
question is, why isn't python on the liveCD? Is it feasable to get it
included?

Just to be clear, GLIS already has (kind of) a ncurses interface.
However, I think that the interface will be divorced from the install
script. Does anyone have any interest in helping with that? (IE,
designing a new ncurses interface?)

I'm just wondering. This is the announcement from www.gentoo.org: "1.4
includes automated kernel builds, CFLAGS generation, the Gentoo Reference
Platform, and support for netless installation."
Where/how is/do you do the CFLAGS generation!?

Want to work on a project that hundreds (thousands hopefully) will use?
GLIS (Gentoo Linux Install Script) is looking for a GUI programmer to
write a custom frontend for Gentoo's installer. If you fit the bill and
are interested, please email me :) Thanks!

Is it possible to package a python interpreter with the script itself?
All in all, I'm leaning towards C/C++...

Is it possible to use qt with just the tools that are included on the
liveCD?

This is exactly what I would like to do. As of now I would really like to

Ok, if you just have a floppy drive and cdrom drive and you right click
on the gnome desktop and choose "Disks" you see listed "Floppy" and
"CD-ROM" (notice capitalization). If you have more devices than that
(like I do), the capitalization gets screwy. For instance, my list
