highlight exported functions
Enhancement request: Add syntax highlighting to distinguish exported function definitions from non-exported function definitions.
I am reading somebody else's code through erlide right now and I find myself always scrolling up to the export statements to see if the function is exported or not. It would be swell if exported function names were highlighted in some way, maybe in bold typeface.
Related idea: highlight differently if exported function is part of a behavior.
Thanks for the suggestion. This kind of highlighting will be added in the near future, as we are going to release a new implementation that allows it. [Estimated in Q3-Q4]
Until then, the outline will show green, respective red icons for exported/private functions, I hope it is an acceptable workaround.
Ah, the outline, I didn't think of that at all because I am normally full-window text edit. Thanks for the tip.
That implementation had performance problems, we are on another track now...
