Set Custom Code Folding Regions

Post by dtaylor » Sun Aug 14, 2016 9:19 pm

I would love to be able to set custom regions where code could be folded.

For instance, if I have a large section of code that performs a specific function, it could be marked as a custom region that can be folded. It would be great if it showed the name of the Region when folded.

Code: Select all

RegionStart>ProcessInputData
//lots of lines of code
...
RegionEnd>ProcessInputData
I'm not sure how difficult this would be to implement, but I think it would be of great benefit for large scripts.

Many thanks for your consideration!

You can use

//This block/region handles xyz
CODEBLOCK
...
ENDCODEBLOCK
