Abstract:
Programming environments do not support ink annotation. Yet,
annotation is the most effective way to actively read and review
a document. This paper describes a tool, CodeAnnotator, which
integrates annotation support inside a programming
development environment (PDE). This tool is designed and
developed to assist programmers in directly annotating on code
within the programming development environment.
Programmers will benefit from a more intuitive interaction
space to record notes and comments just as they would on paper
documents.
