Hi,
Some time ago I ran into a problem with typing left brackets into comment pane.
As you know, code blocks in Pillar are marked with
[[[
However comment pane is subject to regular code completion of NECController, which means that every time I type '[' NEC converts it into '[ ]'. So if I type '[[[' then I get '[ [ [ ] ] ]'. Which is good in code, but not here.
Now considering we are pushing for Pillar in comments I think this should be resolved. However I don't know how.
a) disable code completion for comments (trivial, but loosing CC
b) subclass NECController to disable this. This is probably lot more complex, because the current one is hard-wired via Smalltalk tools
c) add configuration option to NECControler so it can run in different modes (still a lot of work)
d) add setting to options to disable/enable CC in comments and let users decide.
d) other better, faster, easier solution?
>From future perspective b) could be used to provide more extensive code completion, specifically for Pillar.
Thanks,
Peter
