Let's be clear here. I'm not bashing, I want to be able to work efficiently my way and so far Eclipse is getting in the way. I'm not a fan of behavior modification for the masses. I am pointing out features that I think are missing and that I deem necessary for me to work. Please show me where these features are included in CFE and I will be happy.
<snip from Brian K.>There is almost nothing in Eclipse that cannot be customized to a keyboard shortcut. The list of commands that can be mapped to keyboard shortcuts is gigantic. I think you are looking in the wrong place. </snip> I'm looking in the the only place to modify keyboard shortcuts. The list of CF commands that can be mapped is short. Maybe you should install HomeSite again (just for fun) and look at all the options that can be customized for keyboard control. It would be nice if CFEclipse would add the equivalent functionality. Thank you for the tip on indenting and un-indenting blocks of code. I'm using it already. *Missing actions: (That I know of so far)* 1. The lack of being able to assign a keyboard shortcut to each snippet is still an issue. 2. The fact that you can't select text then use a keyboard shortcut to have a snippet wrap around your selected text is till an issue. (And yes I know about the new features in snippets. They are nice, but at the expense of loosing other just as useful features.) 3. Select Full Tag. I use this in HS/CFS all the time. Can this be done in CFE with a keyboard shortcut? 4. Extended Find/Replace. I can seem to find a way to do this at all. 5. Thanks to Marjolein Katsma, HS/CFS had full featured Tag Editors and Help Documents that covered all the attributes of every tag including identifying items that were W3C complaint and IE or NS only. The tag editors and Dictionary view are not even near complete in CFE. 6. ctrl+< inserted <> and ctrl+> inserted </> 7. The ability to create my own tag editors and tag/function insight. Can that be done? 8. The limited help in the Dictionary View is a problem. I do not even try to remember every attribute to every function in CF. I know the ones I use regularly and the rest I look up when needed. I do make a point on knowing what functions exist so I know what is built into CF before I try to re-invent the wheel. 9. In HS/CFS we could write Javascript or VBscript action that could be executed in HS/CFS itself and access the HS/CFS API layer. Many people wrote some great new functions that extended HS/CFS to great new levels. Can anything like this be done in Eclipse with out actually being a plug in creator. One example was a javascript extension to HS/CFS that would let you delete and entire tag including it's end tag with out affecting it's contents. 10. The ability to defined which tags have tag completion and to setup tag complete and tag insight for custom tags. and the list can continue.
