I use PyPE, it's fine.

  • In the search dialog I would wish a button (and the
    effect) for searching strings in lines, that are NOT
    commented.
  • In the result table you find linenumbers. It would be
    nice to see instead (or additionally/alternatively) the
    name of the function, in which the searched string occurs.
  • The ToDo list seems to me a little bit too generous:
    I use often colons, therefore all these lines are
    appearing in the todo list. I would prefer to restrict
    this to lines with a more specific beginning, for
    example something like '#>'.
  • My greatest wish:
  • (middle-, ctrl-, alt-...)clicking on a function
    definition -> I'am offered all the occurrences where
    the function is used (line or function) and have the
    possibilty to junp there.
  • clicking (middle-, ctrl-, alt-...) on a function
    name -> I'am offered the function definition and have
    the possibilty to junp there.
  • There are back and forth buttons to navigate.

    • done, will be in next release
    • won't add without user-supplied patch
      ? maybe, when I get around to it

    • Added a checkbox and sufficient code to be able to search
      in the uncommented portions of lines.

    • Returning the name of the function can be a bit of a pain
      and would require parsing the file. I'm not going to add
      that feature
    • You could also start any line that you don't want to be a
      todo with basically any symbol, like !. I've also added a
      "Strict Todo" option that requires the #>, ##>, %> or //>
      for todos.
      ? I will consider creating a 'find all' tool.
    • Finding function definition: Add a hotkey for 'View ->
      Find Definition', then whenever you click or select a name
      anywhere, you can hit that hotkey, and it will bring up the
      'filter' tool with the name already inserted. You can use
      the keyboard to navigate up and down.
