Hi! I have a question. Would you please consider adding a feature in the notebook, if you happen to work on this?
My desire would be to have the chance to choose a slightly different type of worksheet: a "single cell"-like mode, that I intend this way: - one single cell to insert code, possibly with code completion, code coloring, and indentation management (I'm wondering whether having a single cell could make adding more features easier, in the way that it doesn't make everything too slow); - one single output cell, possibly in a console-like mode (so that it's also possible to try single line of code immediately); - the fastest possible way to switch from one to the other: if you want to do this now, you have to move back and forth in the page, and it's very easy to lose the point you were looking at; there are hundreds of ways to do this. Better than hundreds of words, please ask somebody experienced with MatLab to show you the so many ways it's possible to dispose the editor and the command line while working. I have often found useful to switch from one to another while doing different tasks. I know it's not said that you find this useful, but if that doesn't require too much work (as I hope), I think this could help a lot people coming from MatLab.
