Hello all,

I've created a small list of features that I really like to see in a text editor <http://idkn.wordpress.com/2011/02/03/features-i-wish-to-see-in-a-text-editoride/> (and Lazarus in specific). They are just ideas, no obligation for any of them at all, but I would really like to hear what you think on them regardless of the implementation part.
from the page:
*Source preview of the entire content near the scrollbar*.
*Error and warning indicator in a side bar.*

Your picture is almost black on black, even if I view it outside the page (full size) => I can not see anything

Anyway try to compile with -dWithSynOverviewGutter
It gives an overview of some elements:
- implementation vs interface
- the yellow/green changed line indications
- position of bookmarks
- position of breakpoints

=> It is meant to one day indicate the locations of errors and warnings.....

*Tab grouping of source files (and also tab coloring as part of it)*.
Not the same, but:
using docked ide, you can use several source-edit windows, docking all in the same window. Instead of docking them next to each other, dock them so they each have the full space, and a tab. Then you have one row of tabs with the source-edit-windows; and in each of them your selected editors.

Tab drag/drop may not work that way, but you can use the context menu to sort the editors...

That's all for now (it does not look like much, but it's a lot of work)
oh, yes, it is / will be.
some ideas where already on the list....
