Hi Bernd,

Isn't what you call "the core application" just some kind of
"docviewmanager" like we have in KDevelop 2 now ?

I mean would it be possible to separate the core application from the
document and view management ?

So that for example we could use the docviewmanager from KDevelop 2 ?

We could perhaps even make a KPart from the KDevelop 2 docviewmanager
and make the core application use such a KPart ?

You know, I think people will keep asking for being able to use other
editors until we get something like this that make it possible to
separate the editor/documentation from the core application.

Bye,
Christian.
