Econtrol is the name of the latest syntax editor I am using from time to time. It is win32 based but runs just fine with wine. I installed it in a native XP boot and then run the exe file with wine from a launcher in Linux with gnome as the desktop. Go here http://www.econtrol.ru/syntedit_demo_e.html and try it and let me know what you think. I suspect it would install from wine as well. If you have never used wine try this link http://www.winehq.org/ or check your distribution for a package suitable for install to your Linux setup. Other programs I have run with wine are: WinAmp and Notepad, and I’m sure there are many others that will run using wine. The best way is just try it and see. I have yet to crash the system with wine. If it does start to use a lot of resources and bog the system I just log off and then log back in… Well that’s my latest blog for now. Keep checking this page out for more tidbits as I think of them. Oh ya. I almost forgot. I am still using openSUSE v10.3 and so far so good. A lot a patches and three Kernel updates later and all seem well… I say, GO FOR IT !!! The alpha of v11.0 is in the works. Goto http://www.opensuse.org if you dare and give it a spin. Please do not install an alpha on a system that you depend on. even a so called stable beta can give you a hard time…
