My $.02 worth... Please do _not_ add skins to jEdit. I use jEdit to do real work, and the thing I most like about it is that it emphasizes what is actually useful. From my point of view, skins are probably the single silliest thing to ever appear in the UI world--they may be important for consumer-level products, but in products aimed at reasonably computer-proficient people, I don't see them as doing anything but increasing bloat, adding unnecessary (if minor) complexity to a program, demanding a _lot_ more resources, and actually destroying useability. Please don't take this route in jEdit! Cheers, Ken |
