collapsible paragraphs

Post by david_k13 »

Hi

It would be a good idea to be able to collapse/expand entire sections of code (that textpad could recognize via tags in the syntax file) just like Visual Studio does with with class definitions, functions, etc. via a little plus or minus sign at the top left corner of the paragraph.

This would save a lot of space on the screen and make navigating source code easier ...

I used a python tool (boa constructor) that had paragraph collapsing and I found my self using it.

One more advanced feature that might be tougher to do would to be able to extend this to handle ifdef's in C code.

#ifdef FOO

....

#else

#endif
