In reply to Comment 11 (hooligan/dcs):
@hooligan:
> The look and feel of CED ain't that important.. simple, working, fast and trustfull are the words I'd use to describe it.

When I wrote that a CED-inspired configuration would be provided, I didn't mean to provide a program that "looks" like another editor or mimics features. It's about reducing the annoying surprises when switching software: It's very hard to get the keymap of an editor out of your system. While testing the CED-keymapping with GoldED, I involuntary mangled my texts for days.

Btw, if you are into speed, you can't do anything wrong with GoldED, give it a try. It performs very well, regardless what editor you are using as point of reference. However, gap-buffer-style non-syntax-highlighting non-folding editors have an advantage with loading. That's an unavavoidable consequence of the design choosen and tradeoffs at this point pay off with other operations, and with usability.

There are areas where GoldED can't compete with smaller editors (footprint, simplicity, being self-contained). On the other hand, I personally don't really see such editors as competing products: they are different tools for different tasks. GoldED is for software development.
