Hm, a possibility...
	another visual improvement would be indendation of the
	dynamically wrapped parts of the long line to the
	beginning of it,
like I did here... of course I mean only indendation for the visual 
epresentation, soft indent just like the soft line break.

But I also see that nedit won't see new features until some basic bugs got
ironed out.
Then, there's the toolkit question... but one can always make a patch;-)

Hm, it does so for Perl's print <<EOT; ... EOT, too.
Is it possible to handle with nedit's syntax regexes (expecially since the
"EOT" is not fixed, can be any string)?


Alrighty then,

thomas.
