Disclaimer

Standard disclaimer, you agree to not hold me liable for any potential damages..
This program is provided AS-IS

Getting started

Obviously you need to select a directory to load, all your .cs files need to be in this directory
Subdirectories are not loaded

After this the full features become available in both the TFV and CC windows

Option explanation: TFV

Include header: will search the header of a function for whatever you type in the search box so function Admin::kick(%admin,%client) and you have this option enabled and search for client it will pick this function up because of %client

Sort Function List - Sorts by alpha A-Z for the function names

Notes

Double clicking a function name in the listbox
will open a CC window, load that file, and select the function

Clicking a function name in the list will load the function code into the main textbox

*All resulting matches from a search are automatically loaded into the textbox

**You can search for "redundant" to have TFV search for redundantly declared functions the listbox will be repopulated with redundant functions.. to get back to a regular function list simply reclick the selected file

Option explanation: Tribes CC

left side listbox will display results as you type, double clicking a result will bring up the appropriate source in the TFV window

Options -> Compile: Will package all the .cs files of the directory you last loaded in TFV and place it where you specify
in the settings page. Checking verify compile directory will give you an option to change that directory without loading another directory.

Options -> Compile/Run: (Not completed) Will package all the .cs files into a scripts.vol
and start the server you specify.

Options -> Close blocks: Will automatically add a } for each { you type or ) for each (

Tribes CC will bold each set of ( ) and { } so that you will know what each block goes with
Simply place your cursor before a (, ), {, and } and the open and close tags will be bolded

You can reparse your current work to correct any misdisplay of the tag coloring
By rightclicking and selecting parse all lines
Still working on the reason it removes the other colors from the table

You can press Alt + C to comment all the lines you've currently seleted
You can press Alt + V to remove all the comments on the lines you've selected
Pressing ESC will close the CC window

*bolding for opening and closing brackets now recognizes commented { } and ignores them when calculating
which { goes with a } and vice versa
*ability to turn off line coloring while typing
*more speed improvements

*Compile/execute fully implemented. Use this option and it will test run
Your mod on a server that you select, if any syntax errors are encountered
It will open a window and go to the line that tribes said the problem is on (Even tho it's not always the correct line)
Check the Tribes CC window you selected compile/exceute on for a list of filenames and linenumbers reported.
