Searching for a source code editor component

Hi, I have to develop a program at work in which a consultant can enter a specification which is developed 2 years ago here in house. So i can't really tell what it is about. But the editor should support some standard functionality such as syntax highlighting, auto completion and maybe search & replace. I've searched for Java components...

How do I change the background color of the column with the expanders in Eclipse?

Recently after scorching my retinas from the garish white background in Eclipse, I found some of the excellent posts about how to change the colors so it uses sane (i.e. dark background) colors in the editor. However, one problem present in all solutions is that background of the column with the expanders for code folding is always whit...

WYSIWYG-editor with "add custom html feature" and secure (validated) html output?

I've been looking into some of the WYSIWYG editors (TinyMCE, FCKEditor, etc.) and they all seem to offer a lot of options. However, one vital feature that seems to lack is a simple "add custom html" option which would allow the user to input any of these embed-snippets you find all around the web these days, for example a youtube video....

Working with two editor paradigms

I currently work with both Visual Studio, Eclipse/Rad, and Vim heavily. Visual Studio and Eclipse don't present any problems because they're the same paradigm. However vim (which I use for my *nix work) muddles the issue because it's modal. I actually like the modal nature of vim and find myself trying to type esc k k in Visual Studio...

Looking for a free xsd scheme editor

I'm looking for a free alternative to all the XML/XSD editors around here (that are relatively expensive--at least for me). I totally fail to find one. I need it to allow me to edit xsd files to help in writting an xml-based language specification. I need it to be visual to help with the design, making it clear. Other features are less ...

docbook wysiwyg editor for the web

Is there any ready-to-go docbook editor for web applications out there? I'm thinking of something like FCKeditor or TinyMCE that returns a docbook xml code back to the web application. I am aware that FCKeditor is customizable to do this, but I have not heard of anyone who did this. ...

Visual Studio incorrectly smart indents the opening brace

When I type the closing brace in an html page, this i what Visual Studio does. Notice the opening brace is now 1 indent before the foreach. They should be even as shown by the closing brace. Not a big thing but driving me nuts. <% foreach (var item in Model.Messages) { %> <% } %> ...

SQL Server Query Editors - any that warn of number of rows to be changed?

We're using SQL Server 2000 Query Analyser, and one issue we have is that very occasionally, when a user is updating our live database, they insert the incorrect/no(!) where clause. I know, not good, but it happens. Are there any editors that will warn of the number of rows that might be changed (if that is even possible) or even a way...

Programming tips for writing document editors?

I'm asking this because I'm in the process of writing two such editors for my Mega Man engine, one a tileset editor, and another a level editor. When I say document editor, I mean the superset application type for things like image editors and text editors. All of these share things like toolbars, menu options, and in the case of image ...

VS2010 method comment block pretty format.

I have just installed the lastest RC of VS2010, which for me represents a shift from VS2008. A new comment formatting feature that I was looking forward to appears to be missing.

How to comment out a block of Python code in VIM

I was wondering if there was any key mapping in VIM to allow me to indent certain lines of code (whether those lines have been selected in visual mode, or n lines above/below current cursor position). So basically something that converts the following def my_fun(x, y): return x + y to #def my_fun(x, y): # return x + y I am...
