Of course not at once.
I meant showing ToDo list for all files of a project XOR all files of a
package.

That's why I'm asking what you and any other user want to do with list.
What is the goal?
At the moment it is merely a showing a few comments as list.
I don't understand what the goal of the patch is, but I guess it should
extend it to read lots of source files and search for special
comments, jump to them and edit them - in short words: make it a
useful tool. If this is correct, then some parts should be rewritten
(not use TStringLists, not load files directly).
