Version 2 of the TorqueDev SDK is released! Yay!
So yeah, I've been hard at work trying to figure out the best ways of exposing the most-needed features of the TorqueDev IDE. There is now a new update available for those developing plugins to check out.

This version added the ability to create/modify/remove workspace tabs (like those for the editor or the browser), add custom event triggers by context (ie, user presses CTRL+End in a comment line), ad hoc infopop or intellicode popups, ability to override the standard infopop and intellicode popups, plus a lot more.

I've pretty much gotten to the point where I've exposed everything that a developer would need to code in pretty much anything into the IDE.

I'm expecting one final plugin beta release before the final release, which will include the ability to create your own dockable windows (left, right, bottom, top, floating) with your own custom tabs and contents, so as not to be restricted to the developer bar (which is fine for most applications, but not all).

Good news about the new version. I've been following the development of your great IDE, and it's definetly my editor of choice!

Great work Sam, updates are good.

This is a really nice editor. I was using it yesterday, and I had to go back to windows explorer and delete my DSO's one too many times. I was like "I wish this thing had a delete DSO function". Then it dawned on me. It took me about 10 minutes to whip up a plug-in.

Nice job Sam. I'll definately be clicking on that PayPal link!

@Corey and Nick -- Thanks for your kind words :)

@Claudio -- Heh, thank you :) But I should probably code that in as a default feature. Heh.

I have to agree with Corey... Editor of choice...
