Well, for starters, I am not even sure it is reasonably called an IDE.  I
didn't mention it before because it normally doesn't matter.  But now that
we are discussing what it should and should not do, I think it does.

I think of the MacPerl app as an application that processes Perl that just
happens to have an editor and Help menu out of convenience.  I don't think
of it as an "integrated development environment".  It doesn't seem to
integrate anything, really.

Anyway, the basic reason why it is not extended is this:  the little time
Matthias is going to work on MacPerl would be better spent doing other
things.  If someone else wants to work on the MacPerl editor and related
functions, the source is there.

There is the macperl-porters list.  This discussion is better off there,
probably.
