I'm not a programmer so I might be missing something, but this app is almost a DE by itself! And it is original and good looking too. Can't understand why it's not voted by many more?

Please excuse me if these're absurd or beyond the scope of this app, but since you don't seem to worship minimalism:

1. Fully functional odt editing, compatible with LibreOffice Writer!!

2. Instead of (or along with) the markup, WYSIWYG editing; and a sidebar operation like Zim (note taker) with one-click file (note) opening/editing (i.e. not in a new tab, replacing the current file)!!

3. More beautiful and different palettes.

Yes, I'm a bit (or far) carried away, but these would make Tea half of an OS by itself! Text editor, note taker, word processor etc.

Changing from gtk to qt apps this is a good replacement for Geany. Voted up.

Hi,

TEA seems to be a quite original tool, althought it's very raw for now.

A few suggestions, if you dont mind:

1. Please add a screenshot.. People love images :)

2. Please do something with GUI... it's not at all comfortable to work with (as a first thing, you could move the right-side tabs to the left side)

3. Menu structure is too complex to orient. Also, alot of menu items are just empty...

Menus are not empty. Please read the manual how to use them.

I tried installing the Windows Installer on Vista, and it failed when trying to install the QtCore4.dll file to "\Program files\TEA".

Try install it as the admin.

What Vista say about it? Some error message dialog?

What is your distro?

Sabayon 3.5 ( Gentoo base )

in most of time , i compile source files successfully without need to install any package !

Try a new TEA version, I think I've fixed the bug.

still cant compile ! but new error in make stage :

What is your Qt version? 4.3 or 4.4?

4.3
