Re: vs code chronicles: code folding and Leo's importers

I re-read that link as well; something that amused me is that to this day, when writing out emails or other screeds of text, I tend to delimit 'blocks', for my own benefit, with '{{{' and '}}}' blah blah blah, here I am, chatting about some code, say the program looks like this: {{{ int

Re: vs code chronicles: code folding and Leo's importers

There is no trace of "folders" anywhere in my only surviving "Programming in occam 2" manual (by Geraint Jones and Michael Goldsmith from 1988), so the folding concept must have been definitively a feature of the original Transputer Development System (TDS) of INMOS. As it was an /integrated/

Re: vs code chronicles: code folding and Leo's importers

My comments here have probably been overtaken by other postings. But yes, IIRC the folding marks just appeared in the resulting output occam file as sentinel-like marks. Origami had the advantage that it was only really used for occam, so you could be sure about what marks to use. I can't reme

Re: vs code chronicles: code folding and Leo's importers

Not sure if it's relevant, but it might be worth looking at Tree-Sitter which I've always found interesting. It was being developed for Atom prior to the Microsoft GitHub acquisition. More recently, CodeMirror (an alternative to Monaco) has followed suite and implemented something similar, call

Here's someone who re-implemented Origami. Here he talks a bit about how folding was implemented (double-linked n-trees) - http://wotug.org/parallel/tools/editors/folding-editors/fe-mh/README.html If you go to the parent directory, you can get the entire source (in C, apparently from 1997). O

Re: vs code chronicles: code folding and Leo's importers

I've used other editors with simple configurable folding modes, including this 'use the level of indentation' one. Like you, I find it disappointingly limited, & never really used it in anger. I can't remember if I've mentioned Origami, the old Transputer Development System's (DOS-based) edito

The editor component is a Microsoft project called Monaco - https://github.com/microsoft/monaco-editor Monaco itself can do code folding. Maybe it would be easier to find the code in its code base than in vscode's. On Tuesday, August 11, 2020 at 12:45:42 PM UTC-4, Edward K. Ream wrote: > > Yes

vs code chronicles: code folding and Leo's importers

Yesterday I tried to import come complex c++ code into Leo. Leo's c++ importer didn't do well with templates. A lot of hand tweaking was necessary. This work did create a head-slapping moment: the hard part of Leo's importers is determining the lines on which classes, methods and functions beg
