auto line numbering (for Atari Basic)

Open 4ndrej opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Atari Basic needs line numbers. Programmer have to enter them manually. In Turbo Basic there was the command AUTO [start, [step]] that enters new line number from 10 with step 10 (or from start with step step).

It would be nice if there is an hotkey that adds the new line number based on number on previous line increased by 10 at the beginning of the last empty line,

So you want to automatically locate a number on the current line and insert that number incremented by 10 on the next line when, say, pressing enter at the end of the line?

That sounds like a rather specific use case I'm not sure it worth implementing in this plugin. It would be fairly simple as a stand-alone, however.

Yes, something like that. Maybe configurable stepping. onEnter it would be annoying, but on some configurable shortcut it could be nice.
