I hate to "rain on your parade", but....
There are 1000's of text editors already available. (Just ask
Google), so why reinvent the wheel and create yet another? What will make yours so special that it will differentiate it from the rest? There are some damn fine GUI-based editors out there (Kate, NEdit, gvim) already.
And no-matter what new-fangled ideas come along, you'll still find me in
vi anyways!
And another thing - I'd drop the "kewl" from the name.... That word always reminds me of script kiddies.
Sorry to be a git.
