screem hasn't been updated for personal reasons, and also because I just
haven't had the time.  It is nothing to do with the work being
difficult.

 
(3) bluefish is very sophisticated: if your application should have a chance, it should offer more features than that html-editor.

I seriously doubt you have looked a a feature list of screem and
compared it with bluefish, when you say that bluefish is sophisticated.
Bluefish is a great editor, I just wouldn't call it sophisticated.


To the original poster though, if you are uncertain if you should
continue your own project, consider joining one of the others and
contribute your ideas/code to improve them.
