Plugin idea for inserting line number into code
Submitted by Prometheus on Friday, 28 July, 2006 - 19:33
Hi all,

First, I hope I'm posting this into the right forum, cause the forum drop down box only shows one character for me..

I have a feature request idea for a plugin --

Basically, it would allow you to mark a point in the source code (or multiple points) where it would, upon saving the .cpp or .php or whatever file, insert the line number at that point.

In the editor, it'd appear as a %%%LINE_NUMBER%%% (maybe in a different color, whatever), and the positions of these insertion points would be saved in a your_document.your_exension.inserts file, ala the .marks files for marking lines.

This feature would allow programmers to have custom debug logs which actually tell them which line number and which file to look in.... saving time and aggrevation.

Thanks!
