ECB 1.95 is released!
What's new in the new release:
------------------------------
* Changes for ECB version 1.95
** ECB now displays the expand- and collapse symbols in the tree-buffers with
image-icons - the same icons as speedbar uses. See the new option
`ecb-tree-use-image-icons'.
** Adding hideshow to the popup-menu of the Methods-buffer.
This popup-menu now offers two entries for hiding resp. showing the block
of that token in the Methods-buffer for which the popup-menu was openend.
This is done with the hideshow.el library.
Thanks to Christoff Pale < <mailto:christoff_pale@...> christoff_pale@...> for suggestion.
** Horizontal scrolling of the tree-buffers by clicking the edges of the
modeline with mouse-1 or mouse-2. I.e. if you click with mouse-1 onto the
left (resp right) egde of the modeline you will scroll left (resp. right)
with the scroll-step defined in `ecb-tree-easy-hor-scroll'. This is only
for GNU Emacs because XEmacs has hor. scrollbars.
** Changed default keybindings:
- C-c . r: `ecb-rebuild-methods-buffer'
- C-c . lc: `ecb-change-layout'
- C-c . lr: `ecb-redraw-layout'
- C-c . lt: `ecb-toggle-layout'
- C-c . lw: `ecb-toggle-ecb-windows'
** Starting ECB is now possible via the "Tools"-menu
** ECB now requires speedbar version 0.14beta1 or higher. An automatic
requirements-check is done by ECB. This is because now ECB has three
dependencies to speedbar-code: Integrating whole speedbar in the ECB-frame,
using speedbar-logic to parse files with imenu or etags and using the icons
of speedbar for the ECB-tree-buffers.
** Fixed bugs
*** Now the "goto-window-..." menu-entries in the "ECB"-menu are working correct
if a speedbar is integrated into the layout.
*** Preventing etags-supported sources from being parsed (and saved) too often.
How to get it:
--------------
Sorry, it's too big to post the sources here...
If you are using ECB >= 1.80 then you can just call "M-x ecb-download-ecb" if
you are online. ECB will then download autom. latest and newest ECB and
install it for you.
Or go to the homepage at <http://ecb.sourceforge.net> http://ecb.sourceforge.net and download it from
there.
General description of ECB:
---------------------------
ECB stands for "Emacs Code Browser" and is a source code browser for (X)Emacs.
It is a global minor-mode which displays a couple of windows that can be used
to browse directories, files and file-contents like methods and variables. It
supports source-code parsing for semantic-supported languages like Java, C,
C++, Elisp and Scheme as well as for source-types supported "only" by imenu or
etags (e.g. perl, TeX, LaTeX etc.).
Here is an ascii-screenshot of what ECB offers you:
