I cannot say that I disagree with any of your comments, as I have been moving away from this tool (on revision) when I touch parts of my codebase.

Chalk it up to lack of experience in development (looks like 6ish years ago) and interaction with other tools. I used this solution when the "approved" rev control method in my environment was file based (sccs - not my choice), and not project based (now, git - my choice). At that time, my goal was to be able to link the revision of the test with the revision of the file it was testing. It did the job at the time. Since I switched to git, I don't find Test::Inline "necessary" anymore.

I still, however, use a folding editor. Being able to demote things unessential to the task at hand is useful to me.

Does a fanfold printer count as a folding printer? ;-b
