The most important feature (imo) would be auto-completion. Auto-completion of symbols, listing the members when accessing a struct with -> or . Displaying the definition of the functions in a tooltip box when the mouse comes over them Displaying possible commentaries that are typed before struct definitions or function definitons Maybe even a window that would sit somewhere on your workspade and update to the class definition or inheritance of the class you are working in (well yeah, stuff you can get already, but it's not implemented in a very efficient way) I'm also lacking some docs or tips, maybe some of the stuff I want is there already. The behaviour of the windows is weird. If the file as been edited it would open a new window, but if not it would change the edit view. I didn't find the shortcuts to switch between editor views (like Alt+TAB on MSVC). I'm free to develop on win32 or linux. I prefer linux because on win98 my app kills the GDI resources and I have to reboot quite often. But I'm strongly tempted to go back to win32 cause I don't feel as efficient with sourcenav as I can be with MSDev Hope this helps..
