So What? (Great Miles Davis tune).
Obviously you haven't used it yet. It's amazing and useful. The most 
striking thing about it is that one doesn't have to have a dozen 
windows open at the same time when working with multiple scripts. 
That and about a hundred other reasons. It's an IDE enhancement for 
professionals working on big projects. If one is  starting out or is 
writing less complex scripts, then one might not need it. But it's 
totally changed the way I work, for the better..

The script editor debugger, I must say, is MUCH more stable and easy 
to use than the stock IDE. And many of the other features have no 
equivalent in the stock IDE.

I recommend it to anyone who works with a lot of Rev code.

It, like rev is cross-platform. 100% written Transcript.
