So freakin' cute...

Whoops, just tried to type CapsLockDown-quit-CapsLockUp on the Fedora box. I miss Enso…
It might actually be in a runnable state on Linux by now. I should try grabbing it from Subversion. Come to think of it, I’d probably feel at home on any OS if it had Enso installed…

KDevelop allows collaborative editing on a document… If the file is altered on disk and you haven’t made local updates, it’ll reload as soon as the other person saves.
I think I’m gonna use this for an always-on todo list at work, which I’ve wanted for eons.. I’ve pointed KDevelop at a plain text file on a Samba share, then loaded the same file in the editor on my Windows box. Every time I save in Windows, the change is reflected on the KDevelop screen a second later.
Now when I want to know what I should to next (or need a reminder after spacing out), I should be able to just flick my eyes to my left, instead of waiting for an e-mail client to load. (And yes, I could accomplish something similar with paper and pen, but I want something searchable, automatically archived, and universally accessible.)
A similar setup with Google Docs seems to work as well. The view only refreshes automatically if you have edit permissions on the document, though. If you don’t (or don’t want to log in all the time), the Firefox “Reload Every” plugin should do the trick.

Get ‘em removed from Google. (Quick for you, painful for them.)
These guys have a database of splogs and an API Webmasters can call for updates.

Even turned on wobbly windows for the hell of it. The main system menu and the various app menus still aren’t organized worth crap, though.
OK, why the hell can’t I find a Windows text editor with a “Filter Selection Through Command” option? TextMate has it. Even freaking KDevelop has it. Ctrl-A, Shift-space, “sort”, Enter, and my document’s sorted. (The Ctrl-space is a custom setting.) And piping it through Ruby only takes a fraction of a second.
Oh, I could very readily become a Linux user for that alone. But the experience outside my editor might drive me mad. Wonder if TextMate would be as fast as KDevelop?
Heh, 8 days till I’m outdated again - that’s when Fedora 9 is released.
