Your editor looks insanely slick! I had no idea there was prior work in this area. It sounds like your editor could trivially support html. That last paragraph

  Thanks! Unfortunately it's not available to try. I spent a lot of time building it in my free time and eventually got burnt out :/ It's still not to a point where it's usable (it's edit only). I'd love to revisit the project in some form, but time/money/other projects are obstacles at the moment. I still think the concept has merit, but the implementation is more difficult than it seems (including lower-level design decisions, e.g., like the discussion in the other comment here). Good luck to you if you do give it a try, though. If nothing else, you'll probably learn a lot ;) There's a little more info on the project here, btw, if you're curious: http://westoncb.com/projects/tiledtext http://westoncb.com/projects/tiledtext

    My story is kind of similar, including the wrist pain part. I've been brewing this thing for a bit over ten years. I got burnt out for other work and the editor some years ago and had to take a long break. Last year I started about the tenth new prototype and finally got it on a path that I think could lead to something that actually works. This time I'm trying to give away the code, ideas and everything, so maybe someday someone would continue the work so I won't have to. I just want to see it get made somehow and use the damn thing.

      Hehe, I know the feeling.
