papiosaur - How about trying your hand at a text editor, like NoWinEd, as there should be some source code available for it, and it hasn't been updated since 2016, and we need a really good text-editor/wordprocessor, and as you learn, maybe you could consider adding features that would expand the capabilities of any program that you do commit to enhance!
Such as, adding the printing features of MorphOS's Printers options, the ones that Zukow implemented that bypass TurboPrint.
If you manage to improve it then I would have no problem offering some fair donation for your efforts.

We are still waiting for Final Writer v7 to appear on the scene, which is a program to aim to end up with such features, as that would be nice to eventually end up with a successor. That said I always preferred WordWorth, but it never had JP(E)G 24-bit colour support, but it's toolbox interface offered so many great features in an easier to understand GUI.
