Dont forget resource editing and a built in visual dialog editor. I have found only one IDE for PB out, and it's called PBDev or something.

IDE's don't have to include visual dialog editors...

The devkits for consoles don't usually have resource editors
I think that if you can edit, launch (emulate or upload in the case of consoles), and monitor/debug then I would call it an IDE.

I guess it would be helpful to know what you have tried and any errors you received... I simply typed:
tar zxvf ide_beta1d.tgz
This created a folder in my home directory. Type:
./ide_beta1d/purebasic.exe
to start the IDE (it might be PureBasic.exe - I'm not near my linux box)...

It was
[sec@linux ide_beta1]$ ls -l
total 1340
-rwxrwxr-x 1 sec users 1135936 2005-03-15 09:31 purebasic
-rw-rw-r-- 1 sec users 222636 2005-03-15 09:12 purebasic.help
[sec@linux ide_beta1]$
and move .help file to /usr/share/purebasic/

Your X server needs to have a colordepth of at least 24bit.

After this IDE, can you do some tuts on Scintilla ?

Inner created the library so that would probably be his department, since freak is so busy with top secret projects

As dracflamloc said, there is much going on here, and probably will be for quite a while... the list is long
Even if i had the time, Scinitlla has so many features that explaining them all in detail would take forever.
I know the scintilla-docs are crap (read those and you'll never complain about PB's docs again
),
but they are enough for most parts.
Inner's lib makes the start quite easy. From there it is basically all just sending
messages to the gadget.
I think it helps more people if i continue what i am doing instead of
spending time writing a tutorial that only benefits a few.
Sorry for that.

It's all farely simple to use scintilla really, as freak said it's all passing messages,retriving nothing fancy really.
The hard part come with trying to understand the obscurity of the scintilla manual, programmers are the worst when it comes to documenting there own software, scintilla's is probably one of the worst I've seen in my years, which is odd since it's the most comment editor gadget for ide's to use, you'd think every effort would be made to make everything clear, considering it's popularity, but no.
And yes that would be my area.. and for the moment it is 'sorry no'.
