group lines

[kalos]

hello!

looking for a software or something that has the ability to display text as shown below
ie. where text lines are grouped in a treeview with the ability to expand/collapse, etc them
the grouping criteria will be a regex match or something
also, it would be nice to highlight (paint in specific color) groups that all their lines have some specific regex matches

thanks!

Kinda tricky that does this straight onto a text with line numbers. A couple of the TreeDB programs do expand and contract but then line numbers are not alway easy - they become nodes.

even a text editor that can do this, it's fine for me :/
if only I knew the proper terms for search for that feature...

Usually only programmer editors and IDE's have that feature, usually termed as 'Fold' or 'Collapse'. And generic editors enable it only on known sourcecode types, like .c, .cs, .java, .ahk, etc. where the structure of the content is known, and can actually be collapsed in useful chunks. Scite does a nice job, even folding comments, but not for text. Most likely other programmers editors do allow/support that.

Maybe this editor fits your needs? http://tibleiz.net/code-browser/

With Sublime Text, you can fold/unfold any text you have selected with the mouse (ctrl-shift-[)
