Teamstudio Script Browser 2.0

I am a little behind on Craig 's announcement of Script Browser 2.0 .   This script browser is a life saver.  If you write LotusScript code in script libraries then this tool is a must have.  It is just like the Object Browser in Visual Studio or Java Browser in Eclipse.  

Here is the list of new features:

• Class member variables are now included in the tree.
• Types are now included in the tree.
• Local function variables are now included in the tree.
• References to variables are now supported.
• Multiple script browsers can be opened for different databases.
• Database path is now displayed in the title bar.

All these features are really great.  My favorite is the types and local variables.  I do have a couple of improvements that I would like to see.

1. Collapsed by default (window shade mode)
2. Ability to refresh the browser without having to close and re-open
3. Remember the placement for multiple windows.  I would like to see first opened window have a spot, and if the second is opened it would have it is last position.  If the first is closed the second would move to the first windows position.
4. Option to display or hide private variables and methods, these should be hiden by default since they are unusable
