Like more a standalone tool on my machine.<br /><br />But for me Agave has not the quality of vi. I searched long time for such an tool. I compared Agave with KColoedit, the last one is better in functionality, but is a little bit cryptic with the GUI, so I liked Agave more. But Agave cant give the palette a name, so you have to do it with an editor after saving the palette not so useful.<br /><br />So last week I found GPick and tested it, and was really happy. Only problem it was as binary only available for debian and ubuntu. So I spoke with Nelson about and he packaged it. So I am really happy nowgnokiihttp://karl-tux-stadt.de/ktuxs/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797212.post-49777096242217774032011-05-06T17:22:53.415+03:002011-05-06T17:22:53.415+03:00nicu - yes, I'm not sure it's Free Softwar...nicu - yes, I'm not sure it's Free Software.

You can add it to the wishlist, package it yourself or get a friend to do it for you. That's how it works.
