Hi Stéphane,
I won't reply to each point in your last message, because the amount of
quoted text is getting to be too unwieldy. So here's a much shorter
version:
About class comments. I agree that class comments are important, but I
don't think what I posted earlier in this thread should go into them. I
like to keep the class comment focused on the class its self - its
responsibilities and the other objects it collaborates with.
Big-picture explanations and tutorials can go elsewhere. I have some
ideas for an active essay I'd like to write soon, and the OmniBrowser
wiki also has documentation. Although it hasn't been updated recently,
it's still accurate; the core of OB hasn't changed in quite a while.
(See http://www.wiresong.ca/OmniBrowser/Docs/)
About categorizing methods: I don't think there are very many
uncategorized methods in OB. I'm really annoyed by that, so I tend to
categorize them as I go. Also, I've made Ned's ENH available in
OmniBrowser. I think the menu item is something like "categorize
automatically."
About the hierarchy browser: I wonder if you were thinking of
OBInheritanceBrowser. It displays the inheritance of methods, not
classes.
