RE: "Adobe Brackets like" editing in emacs

[arthur miller]

Hmm, njah, are u sure?

I think it would be enough to look into included files, but yes it probably needs integration with programming modes; but probably not more than to know
what mode to load based on edited code. That info is available though for moste modes; for example in C/C++ included code is usually C/C++. Inline assembly can be deduced by directives in the code.

In case of webb languages, for example there are usually declarations and link-types in header, or is definition itself in the file btween <scrypt> or <style>

Since compliers are not that clever by themselves there is usually some kind of in the code itself that emacs might use?

I haven’t used it, but I think it grabs _all_ relevant styles.  Gathering them from across several files, and putting them in a single editable place.

Is not that a very difficult part? It requires tight integration with the webbrowser (or a framework within Emacs for CSS+HTML).
