Not sure how easy this would be to implement @Norm
But I would love the ability to use a third party code editor for editing project / page header and footers.
I find it very fiddly to keep things tidy with the built in editor.

Hi Pete, out of interest, where is the code editor in Blocs? - Ignore that question, I found it.

I would like to integrate Sublime Text for code, too!
Code-Editors line-indicators seemed to be broken! (Blocs 4.1.1)
Allow users to work with their own editors would save the Blocs-Developer to improve the Code-Editor of Blocs itself. I like the idea and this wouldn’t be to complicated to develop.
Implementation ideas
1. Simple
A button creates a temporary file of the currently selected view (file/snippet) and opens this in the editor the user has selected in his Blocs-Settings.
2. Advanced solution (more professional)
Mirroring all code-snippets and files as temporary files into a folder the user can open with his own editor. A watcher-service checks then every X seconds for changes and loads them into the Blocs.
I really do like this editor above all the others.
