This seems _really_ odd given that the idea of outside IDE support is
so often bandied about by Eiffel proponents. Come on, this is
_trivial_ and fully supported by any decent IDE. For example, ever
use imenu in emacs? Gives an indexed listing of the functions (in
either spec or body) and you can simply click to get there. Or, just
find it in the spec and flip to the body - voila' you are on the
functions implementation. Really, this is just bogus.

And this is just plain wrong. Any particular reason why you feel the
need to go around spouting obvious falsehoods? Also, multi-pass
compilation has existed for over 30 years (probably longer) so this is
just plain irrelevant.
These two bits end up making you look completely clueless...
