Is someone interested in doing that work? Hi, the screenshots look great, but I personally haven't used that one (and don't know if I can right now since I'm not at my usual place and only have a win32 machine for the few coming weeks). Our resources on Arabeyes in terms of developers are very scarce, and my own time resources are scarce too. But since I use Emacs a lot, I am definitely interested in this, so if someone tells me what work is involved and where it should be started, I could consider it if it fits within my time frame. The problem is the code base of Emacs is huge and I certainly don't have the necessary time to get into a fine understanding of it or even of every detail of its architecture, but if the steps for merging the existing patches are simpler than that I can undertake the job...
