right: TexEdit does have brace matching
and direct line access. And it is very "Mac like" (HUI).
What is very important to me is
s e a r c h i n g a n d c o l o r i n g
and c u s t o m c o l o r i n g, depending on what
I am working with and aiming at.
Not only the MacPerl Editor should be improved, but
S h u c k as well.
(Shuck is really great in its ease of use!)
Shuck should have t r u e l i n k s , so we can build
menues and dispatchers; something like this, e.g.:
In MacPerl, if you highlite "&" and press Command H,
than a window opens with this choice:
&my_subroutine --> sub
&& --> logical AND
$& --> what is found --> regex
&&= --> (assignement) operator
a.s.f.;
and each line clickable to reach the explanation.
I think this would be a great help for all learners.
And another wish:
MacPerl would gain a lot of elegance if we could have
a command " p r i n t l ";
so instead of writing
print $i++, "\n" ;
one could type
printl $i++;
this for sure looks better and saves lots of
keyboard acrobatic.
