but it seems that they seperated the code from the user interface, wihch
makes a port much easier

long ago there were plans for a kemacs, but the where troubles and the
emacs code wasn't compatible with the no-gpl qt, but this should be no
problem now

maybe i should post an urgent wish on the buglist

just a hint - what i did in my chill indent code:

- indentation is always based on the previos line(s)
- move back to beginning of the previos instruction (which would be
  easy in c: just look for { or ;
- get the indent of this line
- from here to the beginning of the current line calculate the new value
  + some tokens increment: {
  + some decrement: }
  + additional value if the last token is not ending an 
    instruction(continue line)  ; }
    either just one level in or line up under the last nonclosed ( or =

and there are the case labels and the public, private aso. ...
