- revise code hiding/showing
-> assigned to: panarium, exception, sanakan
- testing!!!!!
-> assigned to: everyone

I suggest, that every change in the classes is reported with a little comment (perhaps via the mailinglist), so that those of us who do part 3 and 4 are able to support the coders, as sanakan proposed.
working title of the project
A few ideas:
- Folding -> falten -> eiffel-origami
- FEES : Folding editor for Eiffel Studio
- hidden beauty project
- HYCs : Hide your code
- Folding Fields
- Heilige Dreifaltigkeit
any comments from team members?

Bayt I really like origamiE :-)
Bru origamiE is cool. Another propasal: FEdEX (Folding: an Editor EXtension or an Folding for Editors: an Eiffel eXtension)
Testing/Checking

I wrote a little Eiffel-program with which you can check if our folding-editor works:

Exception 14:45, 4 May 2006 (CEST)
I think we need another data type / class that specifies where folding is possible and whether it's folded or not. I propose the name EV_FOLDING_AREA.
it should have the following functions:
create: -> EV_FOLDING_AREA
the area goes from this character on.
from: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> INTEGER
the area goes from this character on.
to: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> INTEGER
the area goes until this character.
folded: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> BOOLEAN
is it folded or not?
fold: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> EV_FOLDING_AREA
fold the area.
unfold: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> EV_FOLDING_AREA
unfold the area.
content: EV_FOLDING_AREA x EV_FOLDING_WIDGET -> STRING
the content of the area.
the structure would be controlled by the controller which knows of the AST.
as always, this is only a proposal.

How does Eiffel implement text as a sequence of characters? line by line? That will greatly influence our implementation of the folding widget I guess. A "folding area" will then contain the lines themselves and the start and end coordinates of the area, so that when the displayer draws the editor area it gets those coordinates from the folding controller and doesn't display those lines but puts a symbol there instead. Just thinking out loud here...
