All programming is just text. Having a gigantic multi-editor would seem all cons no pro. Everyone knows different mixes of languages, I dont want a compiler that is 10x as big because it has support for languages I'm not interested in. The only thing I use a compilre for is taking source and turning it into executable. I Might use the compiler to write but I might not, it just depends on whatever help it has for syntax, which like anyedit, can be put into any text editor. It takes two clicks to go from text editor to compiling it.
It sounds like a lot of bloat and there isn't any real improvement. Plus it's better that my compiler be optimized for whatever language it is, i dont want to mix them.
