Name of current C/C++ function name during scroll etc

Post by Aeneas »

One of the most useful features I could use when navigating large program files and scrolling through a particular file is to:

1) have the program tell me instantaneously as the cursor scrolls through the file the name of the current function the cursor is in.

2) Another aid would be to have the product help the user find the definition of a particular function name, when that name is the subject of a Search.
This would be especially useful for functions with mundane, heavily used names like "write" etc.

3) Another needed Search aid would be to find lines within the Search Results which do not end with a semi-colon (;), and

4) indicate lines within the Search Results in which the word found does Not appear within a Comment field.
