Rel in an IDE

I am interested in developing some new functionality in Rel, but one of the problems that I have is that although I am ok at writing Java, I am less capable of building Java programs. It's even worse when I did not write the code, and Rel is a pretty sophisticated code, indeed.

Feature Request: I wish to ask if it is possible to "bring Rel under IDE control", with e.g. IntellJ community edition and/or Eclipse?

I hope it would then be easier for me to modify code, install dependencies, run debugger, use some version control etc.-- then click a button, and have Rel jar files compiled.

I'm not sure quite what you mean. Do you mean you'd like the Rel source code distributed as a ready-to-build project for a popular IDE like IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse?

Precisely!

That sounds like a great idea. I use Eclipse, so I'll try to provide a ready-to-build Eclipse project.
