g.findGNX searches all *open* windows. The legacy version of g.handleUnl contained Leo-specific code which I deleted. Afterwards, the code called g.openWithFileName to open a window, then searched in the window. Yes, since the UNL contained the path to the outline, Leo could open a non-open outline and navigate to the right node. I always thought that was a wonderful, even almost miraculous, capability. We shouldn't lose it. Furthermore, having the path visible in the status bar could be really useful For example, a search might return several hits for a def. You navigate to one or another of them. But wait! It might be in a plugin instead of the core. You can't tell by looking at the tree because too many nodes are open and you can't see what file or class you are in. But a glance at the (legacy) unl in the status line would tell you. The new way loses that capability. To me, that's a real loss. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
