GNOME can get a rebase to a newer version, but KDE can't..... this
from a
former KDE user who would love to go back to KDE but refuses to
deal with
the issues older versions have.
This is, of course, an upstream issue and not a CentOS one, and I know
that.... so I now use GNOME, even though it would be nice to see
parity in
the allowing of a rebase of KDE like the one for GNOME.

Trinity Desktop (TDE), is a fork of KDE 3.x, and not updated from
that. So
in ways it is older, yet newer.
What do people use as a programming editor on CentOS 6? My first
impression of kate was favorable, not only did it support the usual
programming and scripting languages but also markdown which I have
recently discovered...
Well, KDE has its own trouble, even upstream, and for RedHat / Fedora
packagers KDE seems a clear second or third choice to work on.
The Gnome upgrade from Centos 7.1 to 7.2 was "urgs" and has driven me to
switch to XFCE even @work, where I had to ask the sys-admins for
allowance beforehand.
vim / gvim / jedit
Vim and its graphical frontend gvim are in use for nearly all my tasks as
text-editors. A special place in my heart has (g)vimdiff which is a great
help im my daily work (shell-scripts, php, css, html, js, and markdown
make most the volume)
The availability of a very powerfull text editor that can be worked
with in a terminal the same whether local or remote (via ssh) gives a
concistency that other editors lack, or, in the case of emacs, are not
my taste at all.
Jedit is java based, and for me in use where projects span bejond a
single
Operating System (Linux, Solaris, Windows and MacOS mostly).

Thank you, I will look at them. I did download the markdown plugin for
gedit and used that editor for now.
