Well, it isn't exactly an editor, but Flow, from New Horizon's, will do
something akin to that. In case you aren't familiar with it, it is an 'idea
processor', something that definitely fits in with the concept of developing
and writing a program.  I was toying with the thought of using Flow to write
and keep a copy of the code, and having a separate program that would take a
Flow data file and build a stripped-down source file (sans comments), that
could be compiled.  Another program might build a doc file from special
'comment blocks' that need not fit the format of the comments in the language
you are using.
