The MorphOS Team just released an update to the Software Development Kit for MorphOS. The main feature of this update is Scribble, a modern and versatile programmer's editor based of well known Scintilla editor component. Scintilla has been ported and converted to a public MUI class. Scribble, aimed mainly at C/C++ development, is well integrated with the rest of SDK. What is most important, Scribble has built-in code scanning technology. It allows syntax highlighting, smart autocompletion, hinting constants, structure members, function arguments and more, to work not only with the system API, but also the project code. Fast code browsing is possible via file list, function list and jumping to function declaration or definition. The system API documentation may be accessed with a single mouse click. A short movie shows Scribble in action and presents many features mentioned above.
