Built-in HTML5 + CSS and XUL editor?

Hey you know what? UXP could be used to make an IDE application for the web, too. All the tools are there: composer, editor, live preview, JS processing, etc.
You are right. I played a bit with Scratchpad and found I could use it for extension development. Most extensions are fairly simple, beasts such as DownThemAll or MagDown of course need much powerful IDE. The only thing that missing now is a built-in HTML5 + CSS and XUL editor. The one provided by Extension Developer addon is too primitive. If we have such an editor, the idea of developing Pale Moon extension using Pale Moon alone is already a reality.

You never fucking learn do you? Still spamming the forum with useless shit like this. Times like this I become 200 million times as crusty as Tobin usually does. Why tf couldnt' you reply to whatever thread you're quoting Moonchild from instead of spawning it here?

Just go and use Spket with Eclipse for fuck's sake, you have wasted enough time dicking around over that playing 20 questions.

@Moonchild - I think we're dealing with another underage teenager with the attention span of a squirrel here, at least techboyg5 was far more mature than this.

I have put much hope into UXP but people like you is what I hate most. Tobin is easier to deal with than you, he's at least reasonable. My teenager years were passed a long time ago, I'm in my thirty (exactly 31 yrs old).

Do you know why I asked this? Because I want a seft contained environment. My daily job is not related with IT. I could code something for fun with my browser when I'm browsing the web using the built-in tools, this is what I want. I'm not always at home to be able to spawn a full pledge development environment like yours. Keep that in mind. I already considered to give Spket a try when I have time but after your comment I think I will never. I have had enough. Good bye.

Doesn't look that way, given you can't follow simple instructions when repeatedly told.

And you really expect the dev to build an IDE and hand it to you on a platter, that too built into the browser as a feature request?

If it means you won't keep creating new threads to ask dumb questions despite being told not to by several people, then yeah, goodbye.

My suggestion was for someone to make an editor as a standalone XUL application.

Please stop suggesting things for Pale moon that are clearly out of scope for the browser, it's wasting everyone's time!

You want a built-in editor? have a look at SeaMonkey then, that's a suite.
