We've already got the ability to match nested parentheses and braces with the correct mate so that when you tap on one it finds its mate and highlights all the text in between. I think we can reuse that algorithm to handle nested comment tags. As for ones that aren't well-formed, I figure we have to let the user be responsible for doing certain things right!

OK, I realize this *should* be out on SourceForge or something, and maybe I'll get it out there soon. But I've been doing almost all of the updates on it, so we haven't suffered much from lack of version control. Anyway, the source can be had by joining the OnBoardC Yahoo group and going out to the Files section in their web site: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OnBoardC > Do you plan to have flexible keyboard > layout/commands?

I might be interested to contribute to your project .. :-) Heard a lot about VI and the keyboard/layout ideas sound interesting. Right now the keyboard support is basically what's provided by the drivers in the PPK (or whatever kb you're using) so this is fertile ground for cool new features! We'd welcome your help!
