code folding feature on the editor
« on: January 15, 2006, 12:40:27 pm »
I think it becomes common nowadays to have Code Folding feature for an editor, especially for code editor. Unfortunately, Lazarus' editor has not had this feature yet. :(

The Mystix editor (http://mystix.sourceforge.net) is a good start. Since Mystix and Lazarus's editor using the same component -SynEdit-, I think Lazarus is able to use the new updated SynEdit package from Mystix that support Code Folding feature.

1. Lazarus already has some experimental code folding: Environmnent -> Editor Options -> General -> Code folding (experimental)

2. Although Lazarus uses Synedit, it is more like a heavily modified SynEdit from +/- 2000 or 2001. It would be nice if all the changes to the original synedit could be merged, but it is a quiet a task.
