Collapse and Expand all nodes in the project explorer

Hi Chris,

I'm missing a "Collapse/Expand" option in the project explorer. This is useful when you're working with a lot of folders like I am. You can either add it as a enhancement of the basic behavior of XIDE or just expose a method through the XIDE plugin system and I'll implement a proper plugin for it ;)

thanks!

Hi Irwin,

I'm missing this as well :)

But how would Expand work, which items should it expand and to which level? The way I was thinking to implement it, is to be able to collapse all nodes, except the main one, so all apps/libraries will be visible, but not their sub nodes. But I hadn't thought about an expand option.

Hi Chris, yes! your thought is the same as mine. I need to expand all nodes but main ones (Project and Apps)
