“Today Redneck Software released Moonshine, an application
development environment for Linux, as an open source project.”

“Today Redneck Software announced the initial release of
Moonshine, an application development enviroment for Linux.
Moonshine is designed in a modular fashion so that specific
language support is not built directly into the application but
into plug-ins or modules. The application provides a graphical file
viewer, a configurable text editor, and a help engine. The
individual modules provide icons, menus, help files, context
highlighting rules for text, and utilities specific to the
module.”
