Optimized vertical scrolling: no caching at the moment. I will add this when I add syntax coloring. 3. Robustness: ok. I have tested this carefully. The model can only be modified via one function: replace. The datastructure for the first time is rock solid. 4. Folding: ok 5. Optimized horizontal scrolling: not optimized. I will add this when I add syntax coloring. 6. 2 Pass lexing: no lexing yet. 7. Multiple views: ok. 8. i18n: ok, this is my first editor that supports unicode. (im interested in also adding big5 encoding). 9. prevent explosion of objects: ok. I have reduced complex data structures to simple arrays, which are easier to take snapshots of (for undo/redo). There is no undo/redo implemented yet.. but things shouldn't produce that many objects. 10. live templates: not supported yet. In both aeditor 0.x and 1.x I had editing strategies. A similar setup which is enhanced a bit more is required. 11. Soft wordwrap: I don't want to support this. This creates all sorts of puzzles. Maybe I will look more indepth on this in the futurue. But don't expect anything here. 12. Rectangular Selections: not implemented yet. Now when things are simpler then it should be easier to implement. 13. Better GUI: undecided yet. 14. Nested Lexers: I have thought more about it. There will be support for this, but nothing yet. 15. More Speed: ok. maybe some caching a few places. 16. Simplify Things: ok. things has been simplified.
