I was working on a larger file tonight that had a lot of different code comments in it and had some ideas.
Example Comment:
<!--- Read Border Image Used By Application --->
Right now, if I place a comment above the code like above, by default, it turns that line yellow (as defined under preferences -> coldfusion -> profiles -> editor -> syntax color -> cfml -> comment. In addition, when I place this comment, it creates a block of code where I can right click an icon next to the line number that will hide/show that portion of code. This is awesome but here comes the idea..
Can you make it so we can create comments of different colors that has this same functionality in that it would co-exist current comment coloring. We could call these different types of comments names like 'Comment Section' and 'Comment Subsection'. It would have the ability to hide/show/collapse blocks of code just like the current comments work. Having different types of colored comments would make the code even easier to read in certain situations where a document is heavily commented to begin with. Programmers could even use different colored comments to mark a place in the code where they want to come back to or places in the code where they are happy and perhaps use green commenting. It would be neat to have green comments for completed code, yellow comments for code that needs tested, and red comments for places in the code that severely need improved upon. There are a lot of different situations and styles that come in to play while programming and having different colored comments would definitely help the community.
Could have the comment color triggered similar to the current commenting like so:
<!--- Yellow Comment --->
<!---- Green Comment ---->
<!----- Red Comment ----->
Thanks for considering this!
