Barebones Editor
The new GoldED Barebones package is a GoldED AIX distribution reduced to the bare essentials with the added bonus of CygnusED-inspired configuration. It's aggressively priced and targed at fans of retro editors. It's ultra-fast and provides features such as folding or syntax highlighting. Available at a special price during product launch (28/Nov-30/Nov)!

GoldED Barebones is a retro-look ultra-fast editor designed for users who enjoy working with CygnusED and other classic Amiga editors. It's derived from GoldED AIX, with an equally impressive set of core features, ranging from syntax highlighting to folding, but with muted graphics, and a CygnusED-inspired configuration. GoldED Barebones does not include development environments, nor HTML support and definitely no FAX button. It's a lean mean ... - but let's not get carried away :-) The free version can edit files with up to 1000 lines, no other limitations.
Available on CD-ROM for AmigaOS3. Retail price is 19.99 EURO (plus p&p). During the product launch period (ends 30/Nov) this package is available for 14.99 EUR (plus p&p). While stock lasts.

| Barebones Editor Launch : Comment 18 of 30 | ANN.lu |

> So is it GoldED's final amiga version ?
GoldED Studio AIX is the final (new and commercial) version as far as my work on the project is concerned, it will not be followed up by GoldED 8, unless somebody purchases the sources and takes over.
I'll continue to provide small scale support for the software while useful to Amiga users (while OS3 software is used). "Small scale" is obviously bugfixes, but also everything that can be added on weekends when I have nothing better to do. That will mostly be add-ons like the recently released gcc integration.
Future enhancements might possibly include a XML-based syntax parser "for everything"
and a TeX mode. Thinking about it, there is a lot that can be improved without ever touching GoldED, enough ideas for years, if somebody is intereded ? GoldED's add-on interfaces is amazingly flexible ;-)
Here are some things that can NOT be expected: No porting to any of the new emerging Amiga platforms (OS4, AROS, morphos), unless I get paid and the hardware is provided. No major changes to GoldED. The main deficit that I am aware of and which will not be addressed is lack of support for multiple views on one file. Otherwise I believe GoldED needs no major restructuring anyway.
Ohne thing that CAN be expected: more bugs. I no longer have the technical means to enforcer-test my software, that's making Amiga development complicated. |
