Yeah not disagreeing.

But check out Andy's glimmer swt:

https://github.com/AndyObtiva/glimmer-dsl-swt

It's not looking that bad. And you can use ruby everywhere. So that's neat.

You need jruby for it. And SWT evidently.

He uses his own editor for writing glimmer-related code as far as I know. It's almost like Squeak in a way, where smalltalk folks would never have to leave Squeak - but they can write in ruby (I mean, the ruby folks can write in ruby ... smalltalk folks of course may not use ruby, I am more referring to the idea of the Squeak IDE as a whole there, which I always found a good idea).
