Sadly this is a constraint of zope ide's being browser based (or based on current browsers). I would eagerly like to help out with a project that would like to see this changed. Building such an interface with gnome or kde would be possible, indeed there are already efforts underway to do both
Surely something written in python and Tk would be better, so that the editor could also be run on macs, PCs as well as Linux.
tk on the macs is flaky, i'm not to sure of Tk's widget potential to do the needed html rendering quickly ( i haven't looked at grail in a while though). mozilla really seems like the only strong option for cross-platform dev of a zope ide. good news though, from http://www.python9.org/p9-applications.html At a minimum, these sessions will cover the following: The Komodo Integrated Development Environment, a Mozilla-based, cross platform IDE which is both extensible and network-oriented; The Python-XPCOM bindings, which allow the Python programmer to build Mozilla-based applications and script them; Python for .NET, a new port of Python to Microsoft's .NET platform; and Visual Python, a plugin for Visual Studio .NET, which allows the Visual Studio programmer to integrate Python into her development environment. kapil
