Hi:

I really love Source-Navigator - especially the fact that we can extend
its functionality in many ways without having to change the
Source-Navigator source code.

Could you consider making more (or maybe even all?) of the methods and
variables public rather than private?

Recently I needed to be able to access the value of text_current_line
from the select_current_line method and found it necessary to override
the whole Make class in order to get it. Seemed a shame to have to
override 1000+ lines of code (which I'll then have/want  to keep in sync
with redhat upgrades) when all I needed was to stick in one global
statement...

Thanks for your consideration,
Celia McInnis
