Have you looked at arc-welder (arc IDE distributed with rainbow, uses java/swing for UI) ?

You can evaluate code from the IDE, although for the moment output goes to the console. This is trivial to change though. I've just recently added a crude jump-to-definition feature so it's quick and easy to find function and macro definitions. Screenshot at http://www.fnargs.com/2009/05/introducing-welder.html

I'm preparing a new, faster rainbow which will hopefully be ready in the next few days. Let me know if you're interested in trying it out.

Alternatively, if you don't want to go anywhere near java (understandable), you might find this interesting for ui development in arc: http://arcfn.com/2008/05/using-opengl-with-arc.html

yea Java is out of the picture ~.~

mainly because i like the WPF (.NET 3.0+) controls which have an elegant non-saccharine quality
