Fabricio Rocha - 12-Apr-2009 - May I suggest a "users comments" section? :) I tried to leave you a message in the website, but I couldn't read it, hehe :D It looks amazing, Yuan, real nice! It is the most good-looking Tcl-made code editor I've seen so far, and I'll sure give it a try in "real-working mode" (I've been using Komodo Edit). If you want a suggestion for the next version: when I opened a Tcl file, the code browser was not filled and the text was not colourized; all this happened when I restarted the editor and the file was loaded in startup. Thanks and keep up the good work!
dai to Fabricio Rocha - 12-Apr-2009 - I will be trying to make ezdit more better. Thank you.

I too have a suggestion (and I too am unable to work through the web site because I couldn't read it - I apologize).
It would be useful to:
The screenshots look very nice!
Thanks for your suggestions. It is very useful. (Thank you for revising my English. )
In fact, the ezdit standalone is created by using「sdx + tclkit」and they don't need any extra tools.
Currently, the plugin mechanism has not matured. I will document it in the future when I am sure of the specifics.
LV You are welcome. If you ever need someone to help review docs, etc. just let us know. There is usually someone around with a few cycles to spend helping out.
dai Ok!! Thank you.

Windows. If file extension in upper case (filename.TCL)- eZdit doesn't parse file as Tcl.
Ok! Thank you.
MHo 2009-09-28: Is there a way to change the font of the UI itself (I don't mean the edit window)?
dai to Mho 2009-09-28: Maybe you can add following commands to source code.
# main.tcl proc ::dApp::init {} { ... ... font configure TkDefaultFont -size 12 font configure TkMenuFont -size 12 font configure TkFixedFont -size 12 font configure TkTextFont -size 12 font configure TkCaptionFont -size 12 font configure TkTooltipFont Font -size 12 font configure $::dApp::Priv(font,normal) -size 14 }
MHo, Thanks, but I don't want to hack in the sources, because the changes will be lost if I later download a new release...
