Re: Navigation shortcuts [was: XCode Falls Short - for now]

Currently (Xcode 2.3) if I drag a file's icon from the project window into an editing window (the part where the text is), Xcode inserts a URL to the file. This doesn't seem very useful to me. I'd rather see the file's contents, just as if I dragged it to the Navigation bar at the top. I like large drag targets that don't require careful aiming. :-) I could see an argument for inserting the dragged file's contents, but inserting a URL string into my source code just doesn't seem useful at all.

If you put it inside a comment, you can click on that URL and it will open that file.

Interesting. I could see that being useful, but it's definitely something I wouldn't have found on my own. Thanks.


What would be really cool is if you could add an anchor to that URL and it would find that in your source code (making it easy to add stuff like "see the routine foo() for details").

Yes, that would be kind of cool.
