Hello,
It is not the will to duplicate programs but to be able to have access
to such basic features as paragraph level text formating.
Now THAT does make a lot of sense.
I don't know why it should be something so out of this world to add it.
An old chestnut that has been chewed over before . . .
Drop shadows are thrown in and I don't think anybody wants to
duplicate Photoshop.
If I would have to vote for text field enhancement or drop shadow, the
first one would be far more usefull to me.
Take a look at:

The place is swimming with Text Editors! And they get rather
repetitive and boring after
the first 258. :)
This is similar to complaining that you cannot makes bricks with
sand: get over it,
the Egyptians did it with mud 6000 years ago - and its never been
bettered!
Admittedly the drop-shadows, while being 'sexy' could easily be
run-up in
GIMP or "its commercial rival". The webby-thing, as far as I am
concerned,
is a quantum leap, and a "new text field" will just have to wait;
after all we
have reasonably respectable text fields already.
"you can make any kind of application in runrev" is the usual
commercial hype;
however you can have a jolly good stab at it with Runtime Revolution
with an
extremely approachable interface.
If Text-Editors really "tickle your prawns" I have a whole series of
stacks
'lying around' on my hard drives dealing with all sorts of aspects of
text
importing, formatting, editing and exporting (frankly couldn't see much
point in knitting them together for . . . another text editor) which
I can bung
together in a zip file and send them to you so you can curse my name
forever
as you try to assemble them into text editor "Number 259".

- web plugin
- server-side scripting (and maybe some day it will be released to
the public)
- photoshop-like effects
while i did think that the real-time drop shadow and other
Photoshop-like effects were nifty I do not see why they were added
over a feature like a new text field.. during the webinar it was
mentioned that "you can make any kind of application in runrev" but
the fact that one can not even duplicate WordPad or TextEdit is kind
of sad..
i do like the new logo though ^_^
