2.4 The Editor



The HIDE editor uses KetilO's powerful RAEDIT.dll This window contains 3 buttons along the horizontal scroll bar:
(From left to right)
Show/Hide Line Numbers,
Expand All, Collapse All.


Expand and Collapse work on folding text which makes navigating large documents easier. HIDE is setup to fold procedures and declaration sections. To make sure declaration sections fold properly, close the declarations section with its “end...” counterpart.

Example:
	Static
		Var1 :dword;
		Var2 :dword;
	Endstatic;

You will see a small '-' sign next to “static”, clicking it collapses the static declaration section. Clicking the “+” expands it.

The editor window also has a Splitting Bar along the top of the vertical scroll bar. This allows you to split the view into 2 windows.
