Images in sourcecode
-
Hello, there is the saying "one picture describes more than thousand words". I also find myself in a situation, where an image inside the source code would describe the situation so much faster and easier, than text. Especially for non-technical domain code. Therefore, I think enabling images inside source code would be a really awesome, helpfull extension. But as a matter of fact, this feature does not exitst. Am I maybe missing something here? What's your opinion on that topic? regards

My opinion? It's stupid. What would this picture describe in the code? Absolutely nothing. Not to mention how you could be possible even "type" that code nor how it would even be saved. The closest you can get to any kind of usable concept that resembles something like this would be an image in the project resources.

There should not be any pictures, animated gifs, advertising-banners or flash in the source-code. It is plain text, editable in any text-editor. I agree that a picture may explain a lot more and better, but source-code is not the documentation. See this[^] thread.

I think, New Year party left you in a hangover or something like that. But, a programmer leaves billions of errors in just a few hundred lines of codes. What do you expect him to do in thousand words, moreover in the form of image. Of course, there are some source codes where you can embed images, they are called HTML codes.
You get to display a chart instead of a tabular or textual description. However, if you meant to create an image and have objects such as
<p>,<img>etc in there. I won't necessarily support it. Sorry.The shit I complain about It's like there ain't a cloud in the sky and it's raining out - Eminem ~! Firewall !~

Instead of writing to every single person, I get the idea of a general opinion regarding that. Therefore I might not put too much more effort in that project. @Gerry That was unexpected...and I was kind of laughing hard ... I'm probably easy minded :D Regards Darktrick

You can still provide this sort of detail, though, by providing good technical documentation and referring to it in code comments. This example uses an HTML documentation so that you can couple the image with some textual context:
// Reference: http:///docs/tech/MyNamespace/Myclass.html
namespace MyNamespace {
public class MyClass {...}
