I don't recall that nedit has ever had a participant in the Google Summer of

Could that be a good thing for nedit?
I'm wondering if we could interest someone in implementing real folding, or
doing some subprojects leading toward real folding (if the total folding task
is too big for a summer project).
As potential subprojects I can think of a few--I'll mention some here, maybe
more in a separate post after I ask a question or two (in another post)
* revise the nedit display widget to add a(n optional) column for folding
marks (i.e., the typical + or - in a box, vertical lines, the L-shaped
termination of such lines)
Folks at Sun did this many years ago when they incorporated NEdit (5.1)
into their workshop IDE. They had symbols for breakpoints, the currrent
line indicator, and such in the left side column.
* do a design of folding with enough proof of concept programming to prove
the design is feasible
* improve the documentation (commenting) of nedit in parts of the code that
aren't documented sufficiently
Would anyone be interested in just documenting code from someone else?
