- A back/forward keyshort cut to go back to the previously displayed
tab. Sometimes you have a bunch of file open in the project. You are working on a specific one and you need to take a look at another file that may be open at a "distant tab". At this point I often miss a keyboard shortcut to go back directly.
What key would be good for that? Maybe it should just re-arrange tabs (i.e. move the tab you go to, to the right of the current) when selecting the new tab either with the new file chooser or go to header/source from the Navigation menu.
- I know it's a known request but ... I really want to be able to
double-click on a bracket or parenthesis and have the text selected until the matching bracket/parenthesis. How can you, Allan, code in objective-c without this feature ??
Well, for starters I use my _keyboard_ when I code and not my mouse! :)
I do however have a macro to select the current method (i.e. out to the left/right brackets) which continue to the surrounding method when executed again. Basically it's a recording of:
1) find previous: “[” 2) move left (to deselect the bracket) 3) find next: “[[^[]]*(?R)?[^[]]*]”
I think it can also be made to handle parenthesis by using a capture for the first character and a condition for the last. But if I write it, I'll probably damage the reputation of regular expressions ;)
I can include this macro with beta 3, and I'll keep in mind that you have an obsessive need to double-click your brackets/parenthesis when you program! :)
