I will be providing a package, along with a Setup file, that will execute,
to ensure that everything that is needed is installed.  But that will be
after I get the initial setup done for wxRIDE.

I have no syntax validation being completed on it.  If your looking for a:
to be highlighted like :a, then that may be a bit of a problem, cause that
is done within the Syntax Highlighting engine itself, not by code I
implement into the system.  It won't know the difference between symbols
that start with the colon, being the same as if they end with the colon.  I
will have to look into that.

Currently, I think that there is no editor or IDE that supports this new

I'm hoping to replace FreeRIDE, Arachno Ruby IDE, and Mondrian IDE, since
all three of these use the Fox Toolkit in their design, and I've seen them
all (Except for Arachno, since that's programmed in a different language),
be consistently slow.  Plus I'll be adding more features, then what I've
listed so far for wxRIDE.  A lot more.  The base design is going to be as a
single Application, not a modular plugin interface.  Plugins however will be
available to enhance the IDE.  If you want to keep tabs, or learn more, feel
free to subscribe to the wxRIDE User's Mailing List.

L8ers,
