- Color rendering using InteliJ's tokenizer
- Scrollable!
- Embedded into editor window
- Complete replacement for Code Outline that supports new Intellij builds.

Running from source in IntellJ
- Make sure you have the Plugin DevKit installed.
- Checkout sources from github
- Create a new Intellij Platform plugin project
- Select source directory, chose a plugin sdk (create one that points to your intellij install).
- Mark src/main/java as source root, and src/test/java as test root.
- In order to run tests you will need to find mockito and testing jars. I usually do this with Gradle.
- In module settings set the path to META-INF to src/main/resources
- Hit Run.
