Yes would my favorite too for editing but that whas not the goal.

Quanta needs the kdebase libs as far I know. this forces the qt part must included.
Kate needs these too but in the gamabs IDE there is already a programming editor.
Quata is for HTML pages editing.

Gedit purpose was to force the gtk libraries would included, what quata does for qt.

This way the gb.qt and gb.kde are usefull used by gambas and another standalone application
so testing both graphic environments is posible.

When xfc uses gtk then this does not need gedit of course. :)
