Hey folks,
I'm working on a multi-language Code-Editor and am implementing a ribbon bar at the moment. Actually it is working pretty good, but besides, i ask my self with every minute i'm working on this tool: is a ribbon bar really a good solution for code-editors (especially because of the place needed)?
What is your opinion about this? Would you want to see a code-editor with a ribbon bar? (e.g. vc2010 does NOT use one - why?)
It would be very cool if you could take the time, and fill the poll (and comment).
Greetings,
Timo
