I'm looking for some clever program to use it as editor for shader files. It is very uncomfortable to edit very large shader files and it slow down creating process :)

Simply, does exist some program, which can "expand" or "collapse" one particular shader in shaderfile? Example:
Code:
textures/noruen_sbrain/SbGrid
{
   surfaceparm trans
   surfaceparm alphashadow
   cull front
   {
      map textures/noruen_sbrain/SbGrid.tga
      blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ZERO
      alphaFunc GE128
      depthWrite
      rgbGen identity
   }
   {
      map $lightmap
      rgbGen identity
      blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO
      depthFunc equal
   }
}


And collapsed:
Code:
textures/noruen_sbrain/SbGrid


I hope I explained it well, my communication skills this weekend are on the level of social amoeba.

Just be aware that Q3ASE is a bit old, so if you have a few of the newer Q3Map2 shader directives, it may not recognize them. It works great otherwise.

I must also admit that it's not an application that works exactly intuitively. I found it rather crap to work with, so I still stick to NotePad++ :)
