I've been using the "external tools" capability to launch little helper programs (like a per-project scratchpad and task list). A couple of new external tools options would really enhance the power of this feature. Notably, I'd like an "insert output of program at caret" or "replace selection with program output" or "send selection to program's stdin". This would allow me to create my own code reformatters or code-generators.
Even better would be the ability to add my own slide-out tabs with my own components in them, so I could integrate my "task-list" program into the IDE itself. -- Duane Fields _______________________________________________ Eap-features mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.intellij.com/mailman/listinfo/eap-features
