my turn to show some appreciation to the PB team.
I have been an active member of these forums and a user of PB itself for about seven years now and whilst my enthusiasm for this development tool has never wavered in all of that time, I must say that one feature recently added to the PB toolkit has made a huge difference to me and the ease with which I am able to bash out my particular brand of loony code!
A feature which I am sure many will disagree as to it's relative importance, but as I say, for myself, this is making a huge huge difference whilst working on very complex projects.That feature.... IDE projects with autocomplete spanning all project files!
An absolute boon for me. My projects typically span many many source files and whilst the auto-complete feature (or absence of it across the multiple files) never really affected me, having this facility has boosted my productivity ten-fold; literally. My flabber is well and truly gasted! Anyone who has not made use of this facility as yet is advised to do so - at least for the more complex projects you may work on. I must admit that when the feature was first voiced I was not convinced as to it's worth without having a true modular base for our projects (where individual modules are compiled to individual object files etc.) but the aforementioned auto-completion more than makes up for this imo.
So, thank-you Fred, Timo, Bericko, Rings... for making an already delightful tool even better and easier to use. I couldn't be happier. In fact, I might just celebrate in my tried and tested method of tearing down the street stark naked whilst my tenor voice booms out across the town... ah why not, the sun is showing for the first time in months... sounds like a plan to me.
. Thanks srod for the kind words and btw for all the time you spend helping all the (new) guys here.
