- Planned Enhancements for FOLDED
-
- GENERAL:
-
- * User Configuration Files/More environment variables...next release?
- * Keybinding capability is needed in a future release
- * Finish the 'execute macro' command...decide on user interaction.
- * Implement an exception handler for fatal (core dump) situations to
- provide some 'last minute' backup protection.
- * Implement a 'piped' buffer capability to allow dynamic capture and
- editing of shell sessions (ala Apollo DM pad with a few extras).
- * Clean up and document the code.
-
- FOLDING:
-
- Need a hierarchical 'refold' command to undo the previous unfolds. May use
- the 'u' key for this and switch the update screen command to the 'r' or 'U'
- key. Also look into the need for an 'enter fold' command.
-
- RELATIONS:
-
- Add 'Relate Scan On/off' [O/o] option. This would place a user_msg like:
-
- Related to 'related.c' by tag xxxx.
-
- or maybe:
-
- Word 'LINE' is defined here.
-
- every time you scroll onto a line that has a relation. This would simplify
- moving a relation, since you could simply specify something like:
-
- Do 'Relate Move' when you are on the line of the relation to move and then
- after moving to the line you wish the relation moved to, press Relate Move
- again. This could be expanded to include Relate edit (to change the file
- name a line is related to.)
-
- IBM PC:
-
- The first release (0.9a) of FOLDED should be thought of as an ALPHA release
- for the IBM PC. I just haven't had much time to do testing since I bought a
- PC clone for the port.
-
- Need to SPEED UP screen updating...and maybe get rid of the need for ANSI.SYS.
- Also add better 'out of memory' handling...Clone_buffer still warns for EVERY
- line that it has trouble alloc'ing for and other commands may be adversely
- affected. Enhanced use of colors would be nice...maybe even user settable.
-
- If there appears to be sufficient interest in the PC market (already
- overcrowded with editors), I will try to get the above tasks into the 1.0
- release.
