Another little thing: Nedit was ditched for SCiTe. I used to like Scite but frankly, nedit is more powerful and waaaaaaay faster. And the very latest nedit at last has the tabs! So please, bring back NEDIT, the best editor in the universe!

Scite vs. Nedit
It is simply a question of size, 1.8M vs 705k, for a short while we had an even smaller editor, Beaver, but we had too many complaints about it's lack of features and speed.  

I think Scite is about the best compromise we have of features and size.  We also have Vim, Nano and Zile for editing and Ted-gtk for word processing.

Maybe someone will make an extension for Nedit eventually.

Maybe John or Robert can make a button for the DSL Control Panel that will start the portmap service, like starting monkey or ssh, etc.   Unless it is already there.  I don't use NFS, so I wouldn't have noticed.  :)

As for Scite, it's OK.  I've never used Nedit enough to see the attraction.  I actually use nano for most of what I do.  Having a graphical/desktop editor like Scite is just a bonus.  I despise vi and have never used emacs.  I know, I'm an infidel.  I just never needed an OS that was an editor too.  :)
