I am curious if Aeditor is working on your machine?
Do you experience problems with installation ?
Can you crash the application ?
I would like to hear your suggestions for improvements

Aeditor is a editor-widget written in Ruby. The primary
goal is to make a programmers-editor which is suitable
for pair-programming. Other important goals is:
- fully scriptable in Ruby.
- nice visual output.
- many kinds of frontends: Gtk, Qt, Ncurses.
Aeditor is a rival to scintilla. It is meant to be
embedded into other applications, eg: FreeRIDE.
Many things has been added since I released v0.1 the 1st juli 2003.
- cut/copy/paste
- auto-indent
- save
- 336 tests, 1161 assertions (43 tests added since v0.1)

Looks interesting. Did I miss the documentation somewhere? I don’t
see any, other than a summary of what features Aeditor has. I’d
really like a basic tutorial, especially one that shows me how to
setup a remote pair-programming session and gives me a command “cheat
sheet”.

Sorry at this moment there is zero usage-documentation.
All options is hardcoded (though the unittests test them with
many different settings). Not much to talk about…yet
I have thought of storing options in xml/yaml. But I think instead that
storing it as a Ruby-dotfile would be smarter. How should a Ruby-dotfile
format look like ?
The only things you can do, is these things you see on the display:
F2 = save
F3 = toggles between block-mode/normal-mode
F4 = paste the current block
F5 = remove the current block
F6 = toggles between scroll-mode/movement-mode
F9 = toggles between macro-record-mode/normal-mode
F10 = play the current macro
F11 = undo the previous operation
F12 = redo the succeding operation
Thats about it.
especially one that shows me how to
setup a remote pair-programming session and gives me a command “cheat
sheet”.
AEditors goal is to improve non-remote-pair-programming
I don’t consider remote pair-programming as real pair-programming.
Remote pair-programming could be useful in conjunction with VoIP.
How did installation of AEditor went ? success/failure ?

I don’t consider remote pair-programming as real pair-programming.
Well, we could be sitting across the table from each other for all I
care. It would just be a way to argue about code without having to
share the same personal space, or keyboard, or chair, or whatever.

Went fine with preview3. I think there was some kind of issue with
the nightly snapshot and “ruby install.rb install”. I don’t have that
system handy at the moment so I can’t test - so you may wish to check.

Dan

a dual-screen setup is ok… far distance pair-programming is more
difficult to support.
Im only interested in making local-distance pair programming easier.
Maybe when that goal is achived… I will look at far-distance ?

Great, I use Ruby-1.8.0-preview3… I havn’t yet tried automated-cvs-compile
of the nigthly snapshot. I will fix such errors when preview4 is releashed
I use FreeBSD myself… I have no clue if it works on: linux, osx, win ?
Which platform did you tried Aeditor on ?
