[Jython-dev] Netbeans and Jython?

[Frank C. <fc...@pu...>]

I recently met Tim Boudreau, product manager for NetBeans. Tim encouraged me
to consider writing extensions to NetBeans to better support Jython
scripting. NetBeans is the open-source project that powers Sun's Forte IDE.
NetBeans is to Forte what Mozilla is to Netscape Communicator.

I'm wondering if this makes sense to the Jython community?

The resulting project would let you use NetBeans as an IDE for Jython
scripting. In the NetBeans environment you would have a simple text editor
that would handle Jython's spacing and a link from the debugger back to the
editor to show you which line caused an error.

What do you think?
