| 25 | | == Refactoring tools for Perl 5 == |
| 26 | | |
| 27 | | The various Perl 5 refactoring features are available in the Perl menu - when viewing a file |
| 28 | | that was recognized as a Perl 5 file. |

| 32 | | === Lexically Rename Variable === |
| 33 | | |
| 34 | | {{{ |
| 35 | | |
| 36 | | my $x = 23; |
| 37 | | { |
| 38 | | my $x = 42; |
| 39 | | { |
| 40 | | my $x = 19; |
| 41 | | print $x; # 19 |
| 42 | | } |
| 43 | | print $x; # 42 |
| 44 | | } |
| 45 | | |
| 46 | | print $x; # 23 |
| 47 | | }}} |
| 48 | | |
| 49 | | In the above code the programmer used the same variable name in several scopes. |
| 50 | | We would like to replace the one in the middle where $x is 42. We cannot replace it |
| 51 | | based on selection as that would rename the internal variables ($x = 19) as well. |
| 52 | | |
| 53 | | We can select one of the occurrences of $x that we want to replace, right-click on the mouse, |
| 54 | | select "Lexically Rename Variable", type in a new name and click OK. It will |
| 55 | | replace the correct variable (Once the bugs reported in #565 are fixed). |

| 62 | | == Refactoring tools for Perl 6 == |
| 63 | | |
| 64 | | These can be found in the Padre::Plugin::Perl6 You can find them in the |
| 65 | | '''Plugins/Perl 6/Refactor...''' menu item. |
| 66 | | |
| 67 | | |
| 68 | | == Context sensitive Language-specific help == |
| 69 | | |
| 70 | | Select any text and click on F2 or just click on F2. |
| 71 | | |
| 72 | | It currently is implemented for Perl 5 and Perl 6. |
| 73 | | |
| 74 | | See ( #96, #56, #58, #59 ) |

| 77 | | |
| 78 | | == Rectangular Selection == |
| 79 | | |
| 80 | | Rectangular selection in Padre can be done by pressing the Shift and Alt keys together and then |
| 81 | | use the arrow keys and/or the mouse to make the text selection. |

| | 29 | * Automatic reformatting of code: Padre::Plugin::PerlTidy |
| | 30 | * REPL: #110 |
| | 31 | * Project support #10 |
| | 32 | * Rectangular selection: #167 |

| | 35 | |
| | 36 | |
| | 37 | = Planned Features = |
| | 38 | * More Perl 5 refactoring tools |
| | 39 | * rename subroutine #525 |
| | 40 | * Extendable in Perl 6: There is a very experimental way to extend Padre using Perl 6 via the very limited Inline::Rakudo module. See Padre::Plugin::PSI for a simple example. (Last checked in March 2009) |
| | 41 | * Extendable in Python/PHP/Ruby/etc.: By embedding the Parrot virtual machine into Padre we can allow extending Padre by any language implemented on top of Parrot. The Padre::Plugin::Parrot has the code to embed Parrot and it has an example on coding in PIR. |
