  Well, Robert allready have a configuration system through enviroment variables, 
and I guess isn't much difficult make it work, but with some friendly 
interface, that makes configurable the "make" of RHIDE. I'll include some 
configurable syntax highlight and scripting (in some month). So as you can see 
I can't say that I think that RHIDE must be static, but I agree that not so 
configurable as Emacs, I don't plan to write a SETLisp interpreter ;-).
