It's something I've thought about for a while. I'm not sure how
involved it is, though; I'm a relative newbie to Forth and Mops.
Here's my thoughts, for what it's worth.
1) I believe QuickEdit sends code to Mops via Applescript, or
AppleEvents. Now, if that's true, these access points aren't
advertised as I can't get Script Editor to open any dictionary in
PowerMops. If information on how the interaction occurs could be
detailed, then maybe it could be modified to allow any savvy editor to
send code to Mops.
2) Failing that, use either the Carbon or Cocoa APIs to register Mops
as an Applescript-savvy application. Then use an equally savvy editor
to send the text to Mops. After that, Mops has to know how to see the
code as code, not a string and run INTERPRET on it.
Those are my thoughts, anyway. If anyone thinks I'm off base, or has
advice/info that could help, I'd appreciate it.
Best,
Erik
