You can mail me if you are interested in testing the new feature (parsing/displaying non-semantic-contents like TeX, LaTeX, perl...Then i will send you either a message when the beta-version is ready for download or i can send you a CVS-version of ECB directly... > > But parsing- and displaying stuff of this new feature works already well > (other opinions are appreciated!), the only thing i have to fix is the > integration into ECB concerning when to reparse/update the display, > flushing the cache...should not be too hard! > > > This was a feature that I asked for, > > because the methods buffer was empty when using latex, when it would > > have been very useful. > > Yes, thanks to Phil for this suggestion! > > Ciao, > Klaus > > > Phil -- Klaus Berndl mailto: klaus.berndl@sdm.de sd&m AG http://www.sdm.de software design & management Thomas-Dehler-Str. 27, 81737 München, Germany Tel +49 89 63812-392, Fax -220
