Hi guys,
if you code, you might like this addon. It is experimental and may still
have weird bugs. (When writing it, I accidentally created a browse mode
that only worked with up and down arrow and page keys).
Disclaimer aside, here is what this addon does. When navigating text, if
there is a tab, or four spaces (could make that configurable in future),
a short tone is played in the stereo field at a position denoting how
many tabs exist. For example, if editing code, when moving into an if
statement, the tone you hear will seem to exist slightly farther right
of where it was when you were on the line that had the if statement.
When you leave the if statement, the tone will move back to the left. I
will create a repo if enough people think it would be useful to add,
otherwise, I will just host it. Also, I am tempted to use a more
advanced audio library than nvwave, because it might be fun to make the
tone travel rather than just exist. For example, the down arrow into the
body of an if statement would cause the tone to start out to your left,
and move in more towards the center.
