I think most of your desires can be attained with a little effort by
scripting OmniOutliner in conjunction with Script Editor. Not up on
Python, but if you can get your hands on a scriptable editor or a
Python OSA component for Script Editor, there may be hope. My few
simple tests involved:
Pasting a short (compiled) script into OmniOutliner (shows up colored,
indented, etc.)
Editing it (no coloring, etc.)
Copying it back to Script Editor
Compiling
Correcting if necessary
Copying it back to OmniOutliner
All the above actions, except correcting, are scriptable. A brief look
at OmniOutliner's dictionary shows it to be fairly robust. Scripts
available at
<
http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnioutliner/extras/> point the
way. Hmmm. I wonder if a multiple requests for integration would get
a response?
No SPOD here either, running 2.2.6. A brief look at Omni site
indicates they have fixed the likely cause. From their FAQ:
------
Every time I open a document in OmniOutliner, my computer connects to
the internet. Why is this? Is my privacy being compromised?
When we create a column we create a unique object identifier. We get
the ip address to help create it, but the method we used also gets the
hostname (which we don't really need), and which we soon discovered has
the side effect of firing up an internet connection. No information
ever actually leaves your computer, though. Sorry about the confusion.

I am not affiliated with Omni nor do I hold a personal interest in
their success other than I like the features and potential of Script
Editor in conjunction with Outliner and Graffle.

I know I'm jumping in late on this, but... has anyone
mentioned/evaluated OmniOutliner for this purpose?
i've looked at it (more for Python coding), and it has potential, but
without syntax coloring, debug integration, subtree commenting, indent
level inference, etc., it falls far short of what an outlining code
editor could be.. i use OmniOutliner extensively for other purposes,
though, and would love to see it gain some of the Leo features (also
OmniWeb, OmniDictionary ... no SPOD here, after years of use)
