CodeLite IDE

Hi, I have a couple of requests for enhancements that I think may be useful:

1. Would it be possible to diff compare between two editor buffers (tabs) even if they have not been saved as files? I quite often have a use case where I want to quickly compare 2 pieces of code or data and would like to paste them into new buffers, then run a quick diff.

2. Please can projects have a 'description' as part of there setup. I know I can add a notes file within the project, but it would be nice to just hover over the project name in the tree and see a short description of that project (I have a lot of old test / snippet projects that I forget what they do!! )

Thanks for considering!

I'll chime in that I'm totally a fan of the idea of a description field for projects for exactly the same reason.

Can you please submit this on GitHub as feature?
It *will* get lost on the forum

Hi,

This is now implemented in git head. It's also now possible to diff a modified editor against the unmodified version.

Fantastic - thank you!!

It works just the way I was looking for
