Hi, It's just amazing how many cool features we have in the compilers and especially the IDE's. The biggest _cool_ feature is the jumping between Interface and Implementation sections for a method (Ctrl+Shift+Up/Down).
Most programing editors support syntax highlighting for Object Pascal, but never support the 'jumping' feature. I find that feature invaluable and saves me a lot of time! I would like to put together a simple editor which supports just that feature. I find a lot of times I need to edit some files on a remote workstation which normally only has the FPC compiler installed. gEdit is great, but doesn't support the jumping. I would like to put together a small editor for those times I need to edit something remotely. Umm... does the text based IDE included with FPC have that feature, I've never checked?? Anybody done this before? How complicated would the code parsing be to enable something like that. Note: I've never written a pascal code parser before. All I'm interested in is the jumping feature, no syntax highlighting etc... But then again, if the FPC's text IDE supports that, my problem is solved. If it doesn't, maybe I can implement it in their instead.
