Hi,
Some time ago I ran into a problem with typing left brackets into comment pane.
As you know, code blocks in Pillar are marked with
[[[
However comment pane is subject to regular code completion of NECController, which means that every time I type '[' NEC converts it into '[ ]'. So if I type '[[[' then I get '[ [ [ ] ] ]'. Which is good in code, but not here.
Now considering we are pushing for Pillar in comments I think this should be resolved. However I don't know how.
a) disable code completion for comments (trivial, but loosing CC
b) subclass NECController to disable this. This is probably lot more complex, because the current one is hard-wired via Smalltalk tools
c) add configuration option to NECControler so it can run in different modes (still a lot of work)
d) add setting to options to disable/enable CC in comments and let users decide.
d) other better, faster, easier solution?
From future perspective b) could be used to provide more extensive code completion, specifically for Pillar.
Thanks,
Peter
