QE [ collapsible regions ] ??

[kromag]

Does QE have a way of allowing collapsible regions of code?
I prefer not to use a Visual IDE and thought it would be nice if QE
allowed me to neatly collapse code like such, and allowing me to label it.

#region [ Imports ]

; imports here

#endregion

Pretty much how VS does it in their editor.

QE i just what its name says "Quick Editor". For features like code collapse you might wan't to try out RadAsm.

Thanks for the reply.
I was hoping that QE had it though; I don't really want the overhead of coding in another IDE like that...  ::)

kromag,

QE is written using a late model rich edit control so that capacity does not exist. I have used editors in the distant past that had this capacity and it can be useful but its primarily designed for people who do not split their code into a range of different modules and languages like some dialects of basic come to mind here. QE is pure ANSI/ASCII and its part of its design criteria to stay that way.

I gether a few of the IDEs can do it as well but they are nothing like as small or fast as QE which is designed as a multi-instance editor to avoid irritations like MDI or tabbed interfaces.

I do write in an OOP style, and albeit I separate different logical sections that I see could be, I still like to collapse sections of code so that it's neater and, for me, easier to read.

Did i mention that Radasm is:
- written in Asm (QE is not!)
- open source
- supports many assemblers (also basic, c/c++ and what not)
- it has its own edit control, not using richedit
- has its own reaource editor (how do you make your dialogs?)
- tons of plugins
- very stable and mature program
- does not put anything in your registry/system32, uses ini files, you can safely -> unzip -> tryout -> delete
- ...
i could go on and on... but i'll stop and go to bed  :lol.

You are out of date drizz,

Version 4.00 of QE is writen in MASM using the masm32 library. It has some to do with itc compressed size being 27k, a LOT smaller than single instance MDI/tabbed IDEs.

Hi,

   On Hobbes, a site for OS/2 software:

http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/

There is:

Description:
Andys Source Code Folding Editor

Runs on:
16 bit DOS, 32 bit DOS, 16 bit OS/2, 32 bit OS/2, Win32, NetWare

I looked at it ages ago, but never used it.

HTH,

Steve N.
