Lukas another example: Here I was browsing some methods and suddenly there is cross: I said oops this method is an extension. And I did not have to click on *packageinfo-base because in the flow of my reading I was not looking for extensions per se.
I agree, that's nice to see. However now the plus hides information that is totally orthogonal to package extensions (inheritance).
So I believe that if we carefully design icons there are much more important that you think. Note that I'm browsing code that is not mine and this makes a huge difference. On my code I know it most of the time.
Yeah, we probably never agree. We need different modes for forward and backward engineering ;-) Lukas -- Lukas Renggli http://www.lukas-renggli.ch
