When working with complex Presstalk objects I've found myself wishing that the editor had several features (now common among most programming editors).

- Code folding: This would be great for the large if/for/repeat commands. Being able to collapse them to make the code more readable.
- Better syntax highlighting: Particularly with parenthesis. When nesting if/and/or commands, it's easy to end up with too many or not enough parenthesis. If the editor could highlight the matched pair of parenthesis when the cursor was on one of them, that would go a long way reducing problems.
- Better debugging: when adding a breakpoint in the code and then running the script up to that point, you can't use the step command after that. When using step, it starts over at the beginning of the code. I'd like to see something closer to the debug process in Watch, where I can run the debug up to a breakpoint and then continue stepping past it to test execution logic.

Thanks for the suggestions. Most of those were already in our database, so they were already on our radar screen, but it always helps knowing that more than one user wants a specific feature to be added or improved.

Thanks again!

Another editor option that would be nice is a "Comment/Un-Comment" command when you right click a series of lines. This would be for any PressTalk or Scripting tool in the suite.

Uomo,

In both the PlanetPress Talk editor and the PP-Workflow scripting task, try [CTRL] [SHIFT] [/] to comment and [CTRL] [SHIFT] [.] (both on the regular keyboard, not on the numeric keypad)to uncomment.

These shortucts have been *hidden* for years... perhaps it's time we documented them? :p
