Protoeditor is a KDE text editor designed for interactive script debugging. It is a compact software that enables users to edit and debug scripts efficiently.
At present, Protoeditor is in beta version 0.6 and only supports PHP with the DBG debugger (free version 2.11). However, developers are planning to introduce other PHP debuggers like Gubed and Xdebug for version 1.0 release.
Protoeditor incorporates katepart as the text editor, which provides all essential editing features such as highlights, folding marks, and more. This, in turn, makes the debugging experience much more practicable.
Apart from editor functionality, Protoeditor includes a wide range of common debugger features such as steps, watches, stack/backtrace, breakpoints, and conditional breakpoints.
In terms of updates, the latest release (not specified) of Protoeditor features a new icon set and implementation as Kate plugin for enhanced performance. Overall, Protoeditor is a dynamic solution for developers looking for an efficient and straightforward text editor with excellent debugging functionality.
