Using simpleIDE as a universal editor?

So Ive been looking at different IDEs trying to drag all my languages in to one enviroment. Code::Blocks looked the best until I found out I couldnt do any custom syntax stuff for SPIN... I figured hey simpleIDE supports SPIN/PASM as far as I know and it also supports C. So im wondering if it will easily allow me to use AVR GCC/Arduino, IAR ARM... etc etc these are all C based languages, so can I easily add them to simpleIDE and set up some kind of custom build and run scripts/makefiles?

    There is no provision for makefiles or other toolchains in SimpleIDE.

    For what you want to do I recommend Geany . They have a plug-in interface so a spin highlighter may not be out of the question.
    I prefer VIM above all, but a new user may find it a little daunting.
