What's needed?

Let's make it so.

Love the positive attitude :-)

Just being selfish: I spend a lot of time in LC, so anything that helps make the workflow smoother benefits me.


From memory stsMLXEditor was written when the SE was a seperate animal to
the Debugger, hence:

The external editor will not open a script if the IDE script editor window
is open.

Should be fixable, likely something that can be changed in stsMLXEditor.


I think when the SE and Debugger merged stsMLXEditor became less useful
because it was no longer possible to have just the Debugger open and my TE.

MetaCard when through a similar transition, and while some prefer it I don't. If nothing else, having one window designed to perform to different and distinctly complex tasks complicates the code, a lot. But also, once a debugger is made separate from an editor it can be used in contexts where editing may not be possible, such as debugging standalones.


I haven't had a look for quite a while, so maybe I need to give it another
whirl and see - although it looks as though a few others are giving it a go
so maybe they'll come up with some constructive criticisms.

Please do. Your insights are often very valuable, and in this case the benefits nay extend beyond editor integration since at the heart of this is a question about inter-app communication, which has even broader applications.
