When working in XML/(X)HTML and other tag-based languages, it would be very useful if, when the caret is within a tag, e highlighted the close tag, and vice-versa. When within the content of the tag, it would be good if e highlighted the both the start and end tags.
Vote for this feature here: http://etexteditor.uservoice.com/pages/4047-e-text-editor/suggestions/39890-html-tag-highlighting
Plus, I'd still kill for a shortcut to select the content of a tag. Man, that would be so useful. |

aside from a painful fingers, flexibility in selecting / replacing text & moving the caret was one of the main reasons for my departure to vim ...
try vat & vit in normal mode,
if e sees improvement in this i would probably switch back to it for the grind |

I have coded up the majority of this feature, but I have a few questions about how everyone thinks it should work.
When you click on a tag, should it just highlight the tag's name?
Should it highlight the brackets (<and>) as well?
Should it highlight the html attributes?
Should the content between the tags be shaded? In other words, should the background color of any text in the tag be darkened a little?
Thanks. |
