It's been quite some time since I have first touched ComputerCraft, but the idea is still around my head:

WHAT IF COMPUTERCRAFT IS A WINDOWS CONSOLE, OR AN ACTUAL TEXT EDITOR (or maybe even linux)?

And for some reason, I actually came back and make a post after having this idea inside my mind like around 3 years later, human brains are fantastic.
Anyone have ideas about making a ComputerCraft style console or modular text editor?

Bet #1: nobody will do this, not even trying, unless lunatics like me, but I failed.
Bet #2: Even if someone managed to do this, it's not written in either java or python.

Wish: hope someone write either of them in C or Assembly language for higher flexibility.

—Gallary of concepts—


Just a quick note: I know there's text editor for computercraft already, and I know there's even upgrade versions of text editor, but I kinda wanna have it not in Lua but instead C or something else, to break the limit of lua coding.

I'm lost here. So you want somebody (not you) to make a computercraft emulator that uses C instead of Lua? Or you want a Windows command prompt that looks like CC but runs C? I'm so confused.
