  So, IIRC, long ago you bought it from Hekkelman Programmatuur...? Has anything happened with it since or is it essentially your personal editor (PE, if you will)? (Edit: I was a pepper user long ago and wondered whatever happened... there's not much trace of it on the web anymore.)

    I was selling Pepper for a long while but I had a hard time keeping everyone happy and building for all platforms. So I got frustrated and stopped. Now-a-days, I actually have this all automated, it's a lot less work. I use virtual machines to checkout changed code and go through the build process, Unit test, package up, etc. They run all the time on a Mac Pro with 64gb RAM using VMWare Fusion. I continue to enhance it. It's quite different. I have taken inspiration from KDevelop and QT Creator. I feel like it competes with any other editor our there. Dare I say Vi and Emacs too. I actually have a special interface for those users so they feel at home. A nice worksheet, built in shell, I wrote plugins for build systems like CMake, make, gcc, and also of course Git support. I wrote an iOS version that lets you use your Apple Pencil to hand write code, use it to edit existing code, save and commit back. I take your handwriting and convert it to proper letters/symbols/numbers , automatically. Whew. I can list out more things if you want :-) Thank you for being a Pepper user, BTW. I hope that you found it enjoyable while it was available. The old Windows, Linux and FreeBSD builds still work :-)
