I am on the QA hackathon in Vienna and we discussed at the breakfast table
an idea of making a one window perl one function based editing
capability for Padre.

The idea would be that you edit one function at a time and you see
both the code and the
documentation in the window. It would still use the same file as
earlier but internally Padre would
recognize the different parts of the code and documentation and allow
you to edit them
in individual windows.

So when you open an existing file it would recognize the functions and
the related documentation
(e.g. sub xyz  is expected to have documentation in a

 =head2 xyz

or

 =item xyz

section in the pod. It can be either just above the function or at the
top of the file or at
the bottom of the file and the editor will put it back to the same place.

For new functions it would put the code and documentation in in the
same way as it is done
in the rest of the file and for a new file I guess it should be as in
the rest of the project.

What do you think?

regards
