About editor tabs

When I rightclick a tab in the PB IDE I get the same popup menu that comes up if I rightclick an empty space in the code section. I think it would be useful if:

- Hovering over the tab would raise a tooltip showing the full path of the source file (or just say "unsaved" if none)
- Rightclicking the tab would bring up a relevant subset of the File menu

Thanks for listening :D

I'd like to have the next feature:
- Clicking middle mouse button on a tab would close it

+1

furthermore:

* Open path
* Copy full path (path and filename) to clipboard

... like in Visual Studio

It would be nice if the editor would use my TabBarGadget, with close cross, new tab, multiline and so on. 8)

All of this would be nice... but in the meantime you can do those things by yourself writing a simple tool to be put under "Tools" (open path can be done in Windows simply invoking explorer.exe with "/n, %PATH").

I did that already in 2004 :-)

And it would be nice if the tabs would respect the local theme settings. Since Version 4.6.1 i guess this is broken and on Linux it looks like on Windows :-(

The code comments and help text all need translating. Perhaps that's a reason it's not been used? Perhaps you haven't asked Fred directly?
