[Pydev-users] Feature idea: "Bookmark all Occurrences"

[Don T. <nos...@gm...>]

Fabio:

I wonder what you think of the idea of being able to "Bookmark all
Occurrences" as well as "Mark all Occurrences"?

The idea is that you want to keep markers to all occurrences of a
selection while you go through the code making modifications to the
code.  "Mark all Occurrences" is 'read-only' in that as soon as you 
click elsewhere in the code then it changes the thing being marked. 
This is useful, but sometimes you want to keep the 'markers' around 
while you are editting.

My suggestion is to create a bookmark on every line that contains an 
occurrence.  The bookmark names would all be the same - the text of the 
occurrence.  The normal bookmarks view can be used to navigate and 
delete the bookmarks.

I thought that I could do this in a Pydev script - but your occurrence 
finding code is in Pydev extensions so I don't think that I can get at 
the marking code, can I?
