Summary: Collapse long folder hierarchies into one folder
Initial Comment:
In the tree view, it's not uncommon to see a long string of nested
folders without any branching. For example:
src
|- edu
|- rice
|- cs
|- drjava
|- sub1
|- sub2
I find that such hierarchies, while really not providing much useful
information, often cause all the useful folders to be indented more
than half of the way across the pane. I deal with this, when file
names start running off the pane, by always scrolling as far right as I
can.
I'd like to see a more elegant presentation of such hierarchies. One
solution is the following, although a better one might present itself:
src/edu/rice/cs/drjava
|- sub1
|- sub2
This is an important problem because most users who develop in
Java using the recommended naming conventions will find
themselves creating such non-branching strings of nested folders.
