History
SlickEdit started as a feature-rich source code editor. It boasted syntax highlighting, extensive customization ability via macros and could emulate the key bindings (keyboard shortcuts) of many mainstream text editors. From version to version it has been augmented with more features. Now it is a full IDE that can federate with many mainstream compilers and source code management systems. And, of course, it can host integrated debugging sessions.
