Summary
-------

Highlights variable occurrences in a java source code, allows quick navigation between variable
occurrences and renames variables.

This open tool helps to read and modify a java source code. Variable highlighting and navigation
significantly simplify understanding the variable usage evolution. Supports different highlight
colors for class attributes, method parameters and local variables.

Highlighted variable occurrence navigation

Ctrl-Alt-Left	moves the cursor to the variable declaration
Ctrl-Alt-Up		moves the cursor to the previous variable occurrence
Ctrl-Alt-Down	moves the cursor to the next variable occurrence
Ctrl-Alt-Right	moves the cursor to the original position, where the navigation has been started

Highlighted variable renaming
-----------------------------

Ctrl-Alt-R	renames a variable in all its occurrences, any changes can be discarded using undo

Options
-------

The highlight colors can be configured in Tools/Preferences/Code Editor/
Syntax Colors/Available styles/Variable highlighting.
