I am huge fan of vim and I use it daily for almost every editing task. I realize that vim is made to be used in terminal and that's great, because it makes it usable on servers without desktop environment etc. But I also like pretty applications with neat graphical interface and additional features like projects or ftp clients (I know there are vim plugins for almost anything, but I prefer comfort that for example IDEs provide), so I searched for vim-like alternatives with pretty GUI. Obviously, I ran into Sublime Text, which is almost perfect, but lacks some of the vim's power. That made me think, would it be possible to take vim's source code and build a nice frontend for it? Well.. of course it would be possible, but my question is, how hard and time-consuming would it be, and what would be the best approach? Or is there already such project that I haven't found?
Thanks for your answers!
