I was browsing through the current bugs on the dev site and noticed that there were some issues with CodePress (I even know one that's not listed there). To one of the bugs, someone replied that the bug is with CodePress and not MyBB's code.

My thought was, why wait for CodePress to fix their editor? How about trying/creating your own by using the CodeMirror API?

I have suggested this a while ago along with other editors but no one has ever replied to my post.
I would like to see syntax highlighting, the line number on the left and that's about it. CodePress has poor auto-formatting IMO and it makes it even more difficult to use, however I can't stand looking at black and white text when editing a template.
Codepress is outdated, so I'm sure we'll be looking into replacing it. It won't be for 1.6 though.
