KSV Editor is a modification of standard Procedure Editor (for Windows). It has a lot of features which facilitate your programming on ABL. It allows you to write programs both for GUI and CHUI modes as well as for earlier versions of PROGRESS.
The editor works with all OpenEdge 10.1 (10.1a, 10.1b & 10.1c) versions. Moreover, if there's a necessity I can upload the editor for older PROGRESS versions, just let me know.
I used to host the project on my own site which is not available anymore, however, I still get questions from many of you about where the editor can be downloaded. So finally I decided to place it here, I guess I should have done that long time ago.
Any questions about setting & using the editor you can post here & I'll try to answer them.
Good luck!

Drop a note in the "general" forum where Arthur Deltas'll see it and copy (move?) it to the code-share area.
thanks for spoting this Tim!
Yes please. Upload your newest version for 9.1E04. I can't imagine working in the Progress editor without KSV Editor. It brings the original editor a little closer to a date after Christus. I have to stay on 9.1 for now.
Thank you!
Here you are! The first zip is for 9.1 version, the second one is for 10.0.

Sergey,
Is there any way to use this with character mode Progress on a Linux machine? I'm guessing not since it seems the app looks for the Progress install on the local volume...just wondering if there was any 'remoting' that could be done.
If not, are there any tools you (or anyone else) know about that would help with character mode development?
Thanks,
Matt
Matt,
To run the editor you have to have Windows, sorry. Although you can compile from it for character client, but I'm afraid it's not what you're looking for.

development?
Look at OpenEdge Architect! It definitely can compile & run abl apps for character client and moreover it can be run on Linux machine!

Using what ? Wine ?

Why wine?! OEA is based on Eclipse which can be run on Linux easily.
Well, I doub't you'll receive a license file from Progress for OEA on a linux platform.
I can't believe it will actually run. Did you try?

OEA is based on eclipse, but all the 4GL is not - how do you run the background ABL session if not on wine ?
The last time I checked the 4GL was still natively available for Linux. In fact I have 10.2A installed and running on Linux right now
I'm not sure what the rationale for not supporting OEA on Linux is but I doubt that it is a technical problem.

OEA allows you to define your own builder for a project, so I guess you can define Linux OE character client as a builder.
Frankly, I haven't tried to make OEA work on Linux but some people I can believe managed to do that ... though with some troubles.
I see to recall there being some discussion about how much of it worked but there were parts that didn't and they were relatively important. But, it was a while ago. It could just be that one couldn't do GUI development.
