Spent a couple of days in Frontier on an update to Conversant. Then, a couple days in BBEdit with XUL (RDF, XUL, JavaScript, and CSS).

My hand keeps double-clicking to the left of function names in the JavaScript, to collapse them. I still want to see the declaration, but I want the body of the function out of the way while I work on another part of the code.

Some of you know exactly what I'm talking about. Maybe your hands still remember the action, like mine do.

Somebody find me a real, mac-friendly, syntax-coloring outliner for programmers. Please! (Cue the Stones, "You Can't Always Get What You Want")
