[MonoDevelop] Scintilla over GtkSourceView

[Mike Krueger]

Hi

An editor in eclipse is what we call 'view'. Views from eclipse are 
called 'pads' in the #Develop.
Other than that we've many interfaces which views may implement some are 
doing the 'editor job'.
It is possible to use any editor (or view) you want.
But sometimes the editor is used directly (for example in the forms 
designer but that shouldn't matter
because the winforms designer won't be usuable under mono anytime soon).

Regards
Mike
