[perl lexer]

[Herbert Breunung]

hallo kein-hong man and others,
i found a section in the wxperl source code which dives the folding
completely nuts:


package Wx::DropTarget;
package Wx::DropFilesEvent; @ISA = qw(Wx::Event);
package Wx::DataObject;
package Wx::DataObjectSimple; @ISA = qw(Wx::DataObject);
package Wx::PlDataObjectSimple; @ISA = qw(Wx::DataObjectSimple);
package Wx::DataObjectComposite;@ISA = qw(Wx::DataObject);
package Wx::FileDataObject; @ISA = qw(Wx::DataObjectSimple);
package Wx::TextDataObject; @ISA = qw(Wx::DataObjectSimple);
package Wx::BitmapDataObject; @ISA = qw(Wx::DataObjectSimple);
package Wx::Droptarget;
package Wx::PlDropTarget; @ISA = qw(Wx::DropTarget);
package Wx::TextDropTarget; @ISA = qw(Wx::DropTarget);
package Wx::FileDropTarget; @ISA = qw(Wx::DropTarget);
package Wx::URLDataObject; @ISA = qw(Wx::DataObject);


he can't stand it that packages are only 1 line long
hope it helpes.

:-) Ok, will take a look.

The "package Wx::DropTarget;" is an empty package, right?

thank you a lot, i even found another issue. when folding POD you
could tread head1 as node mor above then head2

cheers

Currently =head1, =head2, =head3 fold separately, at the same fold
level. Do you want them in a hierarchy?

Anyway, the two are on my TODO list now, though I'm preoccupied
with other things at the moment and cannot immediately see to them.

Best if you give an opinion as to what the desired behaviour is. I
never use folding myself and so if there is a desired behaviour,
then I can verify it in the Perl documentation more quickly and be
assured that it meets your users' expectations.

thanks,
as an author and user of an editor find folding important.
its good for navigation and folding features of kephra make it easy to
fold specific levels.
i use hierarchical heads in the POD and when i fould on the topl level
and still all POD heads
are folded, its much slower to find what you looking for.

and you don't have to hurry becauseWxPerl contains a scintilla version
that is over 2 years old.

thanks a lot

So, =head1/2/3 in PODs to be hierarchical (hmm, will need to study
other lexers on how to reliably fold a mixture of that), then
multiple 'package' all at one base level... Any weird usage of
'package' that might break this?
