I like alot of the features of both on gvim they show white space
symbols but I find both emacs and gvim a pain to extend
and I need to find a key word and then  hilight columns so because of
the complexity it has become rich edit vs scintilla..
I wrote my own syntax highlighter for rich edit 2 for csound but not
with all the complexity I am planning later..  jedit looked
very intresting but I haven't figured out the output window yet they
do have python embeded well jython anyway (like gvim does)
