For PB editor, allow graph images in source code

Got an idea for enhancing PureBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

I don't really care if you're commenting the request or not. What I mean is to make the forum clear, if I post a feature request I want a new feature, if it's not added, it's ok, but why should I get a workaround to do it ? I don't need it, I just wanted the feature, i don't want something to replace it, give me the feature or don't give me it :)
We are not here for just your personal weird wishes
What do my wishes have something in relation of what I'm saying ? I'm not talking for myself, not everybody is selfish.
And, even if you don't like my wishes, I don't allow you to call them weird.
Ok, i think the debate on this is close.

i was waiting for at less a "may be". It is quite easy to implement in the editor, and very original feature for a programming language editor :?
You could make a complete tutorial of a concrete program INTO the same source code :o . I think i could be a good idea. :idea:

May be, but i'd prefer PB editor to allow macros to do this and other features :wink:
I don't mean to implement it for near versions, i just give possible ideas
Thanx for reply :)

If it is as easy as you say, how would YOU implement that?

I do not see much use for this, and will rather spend my time on features
that have more practical use. (and have been requested by more people)

well, you might end up with a non-asci file format, at least for the source whilst editing, that allows you to embed comments, images etc.

i don't recall what editor it was, but i once saw something that used a split screen approach, left code, right comments, allowing the pasting of images and the like

i dunno if that's a good thing or not :-)

well even though pantha has insulted me once :evil: , i must agree this isnt really a dumb wish. Allthough im not quite sure it will be good for the ascii file format.. about graphs etc Blueznl's comment about the split screen, that would might be a solution that could help this. not in the splitscreen way, but in another, seperate from code approach..!
i mean, if needed a seperate file with gfx etc, then the editor could open it as a kind of attachment to the pbfile.. well if pb team doesnt want it, you could try asking GPI how hard it would be to implement in his great JaPBe..
