| What is missing from Padre?                                        |

I have started to develop [0]Padre about four months ago and version 0.14
that has just arrived to [1]CPAN is already slightly usable.

I'd like to get your help to find out what are the most important things
I should focus in the next four months?

I am sure you either use vi or emacs and you are totally satisfied with
your development environment but, please for a short time imagine you are
stuck in a well paying job and your management mandates you to use Padre.

Please give me the 5 most important things that are still missing from it
so you can also say it is usable.

In order to do this obviously you will have to install it which might be
a bit difficult if your OS does not come with binary version of wxPerl.
On the other hand if you are lucky you'll only have to type cpan Padre,
answer a few questions and wait till all the prereqs get installed. For
some help with the installation check out the [2]download page.

Thank you for your help
