As I wrote in my original message, I already did. It is quite good but 
suffers from huge drawbacks:

* Developed for Windows ; Linux is "Not tested yet, but reported to 
run". Can't find any plan to change this state.

* I had to fight a bit too much to my taste to make it work.

* I cannot get code completion to work at all.

* Why doesn't the delete key want to work?!?

* The render settings dialog is rather temperamental.

* No forum (the author doesn't seem to check those on Sourceforge very 
often and they are not advertised on the main site), no community.

* It is sooo sloooowww and resource heavy.


Thanks anyway.
