- 1We need a few more details to give good answers here. What OS must be supported by that editor? What comments are you talking about: inline the code, or in a separate text file? In the latter case, what formats are preferred? If inline: what programming languages are targeted?Izzy– Izzy2015-03-11 11:49:02 +00:00Commented Mar 11, 2015 at 11:49

- Much as I like the sound of this, it's a huge step backwards from an IDE to an editor. Are you truly willing to forgo a debugger just for that? I would advise you to stick with a good IDE and add in-line comments with the path to the image.Mawg– Mawg2015-03-11 12:18:53 +00:00Commented Mar 11, 2015 at 12:18
- No, you don't have to sacrifice any of IDE or editor functionalities, it's just a richer rendering.qed– qed2015-03-11 12:20:57 +00:00Commented Mar 11, 2015 at 12:20
- 1Thanks, clearer now. But if the programming language doesn't matter, we could recommend you one suited for Visual Basic only, and it would fit your requirements. I doubt you'd be happy with that ;) Do you rather mean it should support as many as possible? As none has full support for all of them, which ones are a must to be covered? What about auto-completion, syntax highlighting, code folding, and all those other features one might wish for or expect in a "programmers editor"?Izzy– Izzy2015-03-11 12:21:05 +00:00Commented Mar 11, 2015 at 12:21

print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- quote by placing > at start of line

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. open-source), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
