Hi!

I would suggest that you take a look at the darkradiant project from
the darkmod.
They forked from a pre-release 1.5 and added lots of usefull features and
bugfixes since then. In fact I consider darkrd to be one of most advanced
radiant-forks today. There maybe alot of stuff in the code thats
related to the darkmod, but many features improve the usability and
other common things.

Well that is unfortunate I was not aware that ZeroRadiant is still alive. I merly joined the Mailing list - in case - there is some interesting talk.
I started making NetRadiant work for OSX, not that I am any good in C .. but it works now better.
http://code.google.com/p/osxnetradiant/

Will see if I can get ZeroRadiant work also... I read in older msgs from this mailing list, that OSX devolpers never stayed long enough or only worried about there own stuff. I switched recently from Linux to OSX - and I will stay on OSX and using Radiant - so sorry but I will surely nerve with stuff related to osx.

So I join this.. hopefully I can get it to run.

Yeah there is NetRadiant too. It's a bit unfortunate that they went
their own way and never wanted to play ball with us, but that's
perfectly within the rules of open source software.
