No calls to an external editor (I'd like to know how can I call an external editor, BTW)
In the olden days of Mc, circa 2.5, you could call an external editor directly from the preferences by entering the cli for the editor of choice, which was subsequently hidden when it went OSS, but here is what it looked like...

- Edit from outside of yourself...
Sometime there-after, Ken Ray (I think) created a plugin to achieve the same thing, named the STS/MLXEditor...

- STS/MLX-pealidocious!
Which you can still download from his site:

However, I won't be able to vouch for whether it works or not in the newest versions of Lc, as I rarely venture past 6.x. I believe it was still working as of 7.x though
You will give up some things using an external editor, proper syntax coloring (unless it is atom, sublime, or a few others), and of course debugging is a bit more extended and the like.
