For programming languages like C, it would be nice to
have a list of functions implemented in the currently
opened file. When clicking on a function from this
list, the cursor goes to the place in the file where
this function is implemented.
The same for header files: list of functions defined in
the currently opened header file, selecting function
from the list brings user to the definition of this
function in the header file.
This feature is extremely useful when you have to work
with large files (i.s.o. scrolling all the file down,
just clicking on the functions is much easier to
navigate throught the file).
As a reference you can have a look at Codewright editor
(function list is in a separe window) or MS Visual
studio (function list is a drop-down menu).

If you are looking for (one of) the best text editors, it's
NEdit.
If you are looking for an IDE, it is something else.
If you are looking only to jumping to function definitions, one
solution is doing it with an NEdit macro and ctags, see
http://www.nedit.org/pipermail/develop/2005-May/011043.html
For an simple "IDE" for NEdit, see

I'm not looking for an IDE. I don't want to build the code
from NEdit or something like that.
What i would like to have (as a patch, as macros, does not
really matter) is some feature i find exremely useful for
_editing_ code. That's why it find it reasonalble to have it
in (one of) the best editors that claims to have some
features for programmers.
