Perltidy TODO List
- This is a partial "wish-list" of features to add and things to do. For
- the latest list of bugs and feature requests at CPAN see:
- https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Perl-Tidy
-
- Improved Vertical Alignment
- There are still many opportunities for improving vertical alignment.
-
- Documentation
- A FAQ is needed to explain some of the more subtle formatting issues,
- and to give examples of different styles.
-
- The -formatter callback object documentation is incomplete.
+ For a list of bugs and feature requests see:
- HTML writer
- The HTML writer does not colorize interpolated identifiers in here
- documents or quoted strings. The tokenizer outputs interpolation
- information for here docs; it still needs to be updated to do this for
- multi-line quotes. Then code needs to be written to scan for and markup
- identifiers.
-
-Things which have been suggested but will not be done
- Recursive file processing
- A -r flag might be nice, but this is best handled by an exterior shell
- script.
-
- Make perltidy support the syntax of module XXX
- This generally won't be done unless the module is part of the core perl
- distribution because it is such an open-ended problem. Compounding the
- problem is the fact that perltidy often is invoked within an editor on
- small snippets of code, so it must to work correctly without seeing any
- particular 'use xxx' statement. Therefore, any syntax changes that
- conflict with standard Perl syntax can't easily be handled.
-
- However, an effort is being made to make perltidy generally more
- tolerant of extensions to perl syntax. Also, the pre- and post-filter
- capabilities of the Tidy.pm module may help.
