Re^2: Where to place POD

in reply to Re: Where to place POD
in thread Where to place POD

Your "interleave" argument is what these days tends to drive me to use a separate file. I pretty much always develop with an IDE using two windows - source on the left, reference (header files, POD, ...) on the right. That way I have the API reference immediately to hand without scrolling or switching tabs - the code and "API" are side by side.

Optimising for fewest key strokes only makes sense transmitting to Pluto or beyond

Like you, I too use two windows in my IDE, but instead of having POD in a separate file, I just open two windows to the same file. One the code, the other at the bottom of the file where the POD is. I always write POD as I'm writing the function/method, and when making updates to code, I've got the POD handy much like you for both review, and edits.	[reply]
