Any chance to 'fake' a function list..?

I am using TextPad since years now -most of the time I've been coding not too big scripts of PHP. Since a couple of months, however, I switched to Blitz Basic 3D, working on some huge, big sized projects.

I configured TextPad to compile my sources, but as they keep growing and growing, I am really missing some important features that help me to keep an overview of all those thousands of code lines. The most important one would be a floating toolbox that automatically tracks alls functions or labels declared in the source code.

In Blitz Basic, a function is declared like this:

Function myFunctionName (..)
End Function

and a label like this

.myLabelName

So is there any way to jump right to those functions or labels within the source files? There might be a solution for C++ etc., but I'd need one that can be used with every language, mainly Blitz Basic in my case.

Any ideas? Without that feature, I am not able to handle huge source files with TextPad :(
