this is gorgeous :)
simply gorgeous.
This opens a lot of possibilities.
> I hope you will enjoy it, and as usual if you have cool ideas, let me know ;)
of course I do :)
- I imagine that we will be able to have multiple methods not compiled
so the red border/corner should be more important.
- Now may be when a method is pinned down we should get a slight grey
background.
- right clicking on a method could open and pin automatically a method.
- I should try it.
one important point is to now where a free (non pinned method
will show up)
- may be we should use the coral syntax for methods
or add decoration so that we know in which class the method belongs to
Point>>extent:
[
]
because the help text is not that efficient to show the location
- may be t would be good to have a way not to open extra methods when we have
already 3 or 4 but to replace a free one.
