Hi guys
I was wondering if implementing lexical parsing in a separate thread was something you guys would look at ever?
For example, if I paste an 80,000 line document into a syntax editor, it takes a reasonably long while to lexically parse that. Ideally, I would like the editor control to be usable after it had done enough parsing to show the 40-50 lines that would be visible on the display (which would be near-instant).
I don't have intimate knowledge of how the parsing works in SyntaxEditor, so i might be asking a completely ridiculous question - but it would certainly make a big difference to my application.
If you were to release version 4.1 tomorrow, and it only had this one extra feature, I would buy it...
Thanks, and apologies if this is a dumb question.
