Mainmenu/File/OpenSourceFile - WOT is it for

[sargasso]

Mainmenu/File/OpenSourceFile  obviously opens a source code file in an EA window, but what is it good for?

Is there any goodies that can be used from this code view - like f'rinstance dragging a method signature from the codeview class tree to an existing class in the project view?

No goodies like that yet, although it's not a new idea.

The main benefit of this editor is that it's more persistent.  While EA will open/close/move around files while you work with the editor dockable window, these stick around.

It's also notable that this editor is where code debugging is done.

Does that justify it's existence to you?

Yes, its all fine - I was just being optimistic
