Re: Leo with C++ project

[Fidel Pérez]

Hi, im a newcomer myself (you can check that by searching for posts of mine) and I would definetly use Leo to do that.

By what I have learned/am learning, I think if leo is used properly you can be using it for the last time.

It has a built in feature that translates c to python (some adjustments have to be made by the user) but what i mean by that is that you already have the parsing examples to make Leo analyze your files automatically.

In the begging Leo is a bit hard to understand (and they are working on this) since Leo has so many features... but its worth every second invested on it. My bet is that you will end up using it for everything, not only programming.

Hi Group,

I am a newcomer to Leo. Did anyone use it for documenting and managing large C/C++ projects? I have some 'badly documented' C++ files which I wish to clean up. One option is to use doxygen etc. I was wondering whether Leo would be  a good candidate for this. I am willing to spend any amount of time learning it if it guarantees to be as good as vim is with editing.

What I wanted to write (I hate the non-editable gmail groups) is that it allows you to manage information in a way that will easen you a lot the next time you have to do the same thing, so if you are organized, in the long run it will save you huge amount of time.

Only you can be the judge of whether Leo will be worth using :-)  But I think studying Leo will be worthwhile for you.

Leo's vim plugin allows you to edit text in vim.  Double-clicking a Leo node (which can be bound to a Leo keystroke) will create a temp file corresponding to the Leo node and that temp file in vim.  When you save the temp file, Leo will update the text in the Leo node.
