It requires literally dozens of .js files to get it working... Is there a bundled and minified version of this in a single file?<p>I'm very much interested in a basic rich-text editor that is either uses jQuery or is just framework independent. I've liked 37signals's wysihat, but it uses Prototype. I'm sort of working on porting it to jQuery, but that takes time.

How does this differ significantly from something like TinyMCE? From what I can tell, it's still using contenteditable.<p>I'd be interested in seeing an open implementation of the editor Google is now using with Google Docs, where they completely avoid using contenteditable.

It's unbelievable how broken online RTE's are. I'm building websites for quite some time now and I never figured out why browser makers are neglecting such a basic feature, it should not be that hard to implement a basic RTE.<p>It's nice to see Google is trying to do something about it and making it easier to implement an RTE with projects like this, but it would be nicer if they would push other browser builders to standardise.

Hello, I have a question.<p>Does anybody know about javascript rich text / HTML editor, that could easily show small popup under carret (or certain word) while the user is typing? I mean something like the spell-checker in this google wave demonstration - see at 0:44:40 <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_UyVmITiYQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_UyVmITiYQ</a> Or lets say, you want to implement something like this <a href="http://doc.trolltech.com/4.6/tools-customcompleter.html" rel="nofollow">http://doc.trolltech.com/4.6/tools-customcompleter.html</a> but in web browser. How would you go about it?

This is the first time I've heard about the "Closure Library".<p>Do you think this is what the new m.youtube.com HTML5 site is built in? Is Closure a replacement for GWT?

Double BR's, DIVs used as containing elements... ugh. I was expecting better from Google. The problem of all RTE remains: their HTML is fucking ugly.

The GMail editor feels a LOT faster than the demo provided. Any specific reason?
