Do you mean the View -> Code Explorer?
Yes, exactly that. I see a lot of work has already been done. Next
step is to dock that in the UnitEditor. I see many features are
already in lazarus, but simply not at hand or don't know about it. The
work left is almost better UI integration and presentation.
I see that the goto stuff is not working on my version. I'll be able
to work on this.

codetools
Ok, I also see examples of codetools that you made. I'll take a look
at all that.

Yes, but it would require a lot of changes to synedit.
Maybe one day! :) Post 1.0

Use Search -> 'Find in files'.
Otherwise: Extend Find/Replace to use functions of 'Find in files'.
Search in document is too broad sometimes, or you always need to
change the directory where you want to search. Some changes could
enhance the behaviour...

Ehm, what and how do you search?
How Ctrl+F :)
Sometimes when diging in the LCL you want to see the implementation of
a function. (Ctrl+Shift+Up) But other times parts of a string... but
the actual find is not going in the include files. But I think this
will be useless now, because most of the time it was for the
implementation of a procedure.

Do you mean Ctrl+Shift+Up ?
Yes! This is what I was looking for. Thank you.
Is there a place where all these features are documented? :) I see
that many of them I'm missing and was about to code already exist.
Thank you very much for your time. My coding life with Lazarus has
enhanced a lot now :)
