    I'm not sure should this be part of the editor or wait for the plugins system and then make it as plugin.

    Anw, I would really like a feature that will quickly display a list of functions / methods in the current file. There was a feature like that in Homesite (done through external script) and there is a half-assed attempt in Dreamweaver. I often work with 60kB or larger .asp files and sometimes with 30-50k .js files and apart from searching is hard to navigate.

    It should list like this:
    function xx()
    class xx()
    method cc ()

    Nothing fancy, no intellisense or anything - a quick reg-exp that looks for predefined searches and displays the matches in clickable list.
    What really annoys me with DW is that when you have (in Javascript): "this.Load = function()" it will display " ()" in the fn list. :(

    I'm moving away from TopStylePro - my all-time favourite that's dwindling to inevitable death - and investigating other editors. Intype looks very promising, especially looking at stickied features list. If you can manage to keep it fast-responsive - count me as a customer.

    That would be a very nice feature. I think it would work well as a plugin.
    You could build custom regex filters for other code constructs too.

    Yeah, that’d be a nice plugin.

    Personally, I think it should behave more like Visual Studio’s class/method/variable/global-variable list(s). Any disagreements? (aleck?)

    This has already been requested and acknowledged as code/symbol explorer. Its the fourth entry under the Interface catergory in the Compilation of Feature Requests thread.

    ;) :P
