Wow! I now how to integrate tortoiseSVN with Delphi IDE now!

Well, I've been benefit from the newsgroup too much compared to my
contribution ;-) today I share something I think good with you guys :)

You know TortoiseSVN is biggest advantage is it is integrated with the
windows shell, compared with version control tools integrated with DELPHI
IDE, it allows you handle other file types too, not only the files included
in your Delphi project. The Downside is, each time when you are working in
the IDE and you want to start a TORTOISESVN action on the source file you
are editing, you have to go to the windows explorer, locate the file and
call the TortoiseSVN right menu. Tedious, isn't it? Now this has been
changed, Today when I was reading a post which was looking for an
alternative of AutoFill feature in CodeRush (I've not tried it before, but I
understood it is similiar to VisualAssit for visual studio), I found cnPack,
one of the expert in it allows you right click on a TAB of the code editor
and then call up the Explorer context menu for the current source file, just
like what you will see when you right click on the corresponding file name
in Explore! Fantastic! Now TortorseSVN is integrated with DELPHI IDE!

What? Haven't heard of SVN or TortorseSVN? Wuyuzhong... (guess what does
this mean :-)

BTW1, the code completion wizard included in CNPACK is really excellent, a
big time saver!
BTW2, the ability which allows you to maximize the code editor in the IDE is
good too, you know the title bar of the code editor window in D7 is really
wasting the workspace! Especially you use a wide-screen notebook.

PS1, I don't know the exact name of the menu items mentioned above in
English, but I am sure you can find it easily.
PS2, some abilities offered by CNPACK are overlapped with GExperts and
DDevExtensions, disable some of them if you use these two experts.

Well, I feel better now :) In fact it's not that I don't want to share good
stuff with you guys, but my English is bad :(
