Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nickustinov/itsypad-macos/issues/54

I was wondering if there any plans to implement a table of contents/index feature so that we can quickly get an overview and jump through the various sections of the text file, as seen here in CotEditor:

The logic for what gets added to the ToC can depend upon the file format, I guess. For example, in a shell script, each comment and the first line of each code section can be indexed; in a markdown file, all heading levels can be indexed.

Thanks for the detailed suggestion! This is an interesting idea, but it's a bit outside the scope of what Itsypad aims to be – a lightweight scratchpad rather than a full-featured code editor.

That said, if this gets more interest and upvotes I'd be open to reconsidering. For now it's not on the roadmap though.

No problem! Just a suggestion. I can manage without it too. Thank you for considering!
