Many code editors do code completion -- it is a great productivity tool for developers ramping on using modules they are not intimately familiar with. MS made the code available which makes it easier for other editors / IDEs to do the same. For less sophisticated developers (most people, and most of the VS market), the compiler errors will remove much debugging frustration and allow them to focus on creating rather than debugging. Code completion was a HUGE feature for Perl and Python developers when I built Komodo at ActiveState. -- Dick -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
