Hey Jean-Francois,

Nice to see you trying nemiver on the great Epiphany :-)
Thank you for that.

That is not difficult to do. I'll try to get that out for 0.3, unless
somebody does it before I find the time to do it, of course.

This is a much needed feature, I agree. There even is an enhancement
request filled in bugzilla for it.

Agreed again. We need that. I have added an enhancement request in
bugzilla for that. Check out
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395701 .

> - kind of integration with devhelp, by right clicking on a function.

Yeah, this would be cool, though I'd planned that for a more mid/long
term horizon.
To do this "class" of contextual "help", we need to be able to parse
the C++ language somehow, and that is not a small matter. But _this_
is the kind of killer feature I am dreaming about. We need something
more evolved than the classical etags/ctags approach. Something more
like what msdev's intellisense does.

When you can rigth click on a function call and hit "go to function
definition", I can tell you that the devhelp integration becomes a
only small add-on to the whole language analyzing stack we would have
had by that time. I have filled
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395704 for this one.

Heh, no problem. You know where this mailing list is :-)

Thank you for trying ou and giving feedbacks.

Cheers,
