RE: IDE: Code Editor
posted by: camping at txcyber.com
A fully editable code base has been repeatedly requested. I have resisted doing
that; mainly because I have not thought of a way to prevent user from deleting
'marker' statements that would allow the editor to find control-event coding in
the file. Remember user can rename the suggested procedure and setHandler
statements that Code Editor generates when user clicks a new combination of
control and event. But I do get smarter with age and more people are contributing
ideas how to accomplish tasks so, although I can not promise anything, who knows
what the future holds.
Release 0.19.0 which follows 0.18.9/10 (now, I hope, in final stages of testing)
will offer a multiple file and control-event Code Editor and stand alone editor.
This will not exactly do what you desire but will allow you to work on as many
control-events as you wish at one time. You will be able to flip between
control-event elements of the code, make changes, save and run.
Thanks for the nice words about IDE. I can not take all credit because IDE has
evolved because people, like you, ask for features I do not think of and many
people have contributed code to help along the way.
