IDE just stands for Integrated Development Environment, so something that doesn't edit text could still be an IDE

Yes, I know. And an IDE by any acceptable definition needs a text editor.

  An integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities for software development. An IDE normally consists of at least a source-code editor, build automation tools, and a debugger.
