Turn Off Double-Entry?

[Jerry Daniels]

If I read this thread correctly, it isn't that the Rev IDE is  
untrustworthy, but rather that the second typing of an enter key  
closes the Rev script editor.

If basic development environments didn't have third party tools, they  
wouldn't last long. Third party products exist to enrich a platform,  
not because the underlying "standard" product is untrustworthy or un- 
useable. It's a matter of providing more choices, extending  
functionality and creating diversity--the hallmarks of evolution (or  
in Richard's case "Devolution").

We have Constellation (www.daniels-mara.com/products/ 
constellation.htm) users who have never used the Revolution script  
editor--newbies to Revolution, if you will. The same can be said of  
the Metacard IDE and Devolution (Richard Gaskin's IDE). There are  
also people who are using Scott Rossi's excellent tools  
(www.tactilemedia.com) and have never used the "stock" object  
alignnment and colorizing.
