[23:16] <Mossop> njn: Any reason you used an ascii-art tree in about:memory rather than a xul tree? <njn> Mossop: because I knew how to do an ascii-art tree? :) Mossop: would a xul tree cut and paste nicely into a text buffer? [23:17] <Mossop> No But it would be expandable and look a hwole lot prettier! <njn> Mossop: that's a crucial use case <Mossop> Could easily make a copy button <KWierso> couldn't you listen for some clipboard event and add in text versions? [23:18] <njn> feel free to file a bug :)

Some properties of the current ascii-art that need to be preserved: - Cut and paste must be nice. - Vertical alignment must be nice -- eg. right-justify numbers.

Some suggestions from a commenter on my blog: 1. make the tree edge color a very light gray 2. make the parens around the percentages a very light gray 3. make the all the leading 0′s on the integer part a very light gray 4. make the — a lighter color 5. make the (N omitted) a lighter color 6. make any line with 0 MB completely a very light gray 7. on mouse hover, the current node and all the ancestors of the node should be highlighted Number 7 isn't possible with ascii art, AFAIK.

I think bug 719335 is a better way to go -- it introduces the collapsible/expandable property while retaining the nice cut-and-paste property. Also, I image rendering a XUL tree would require more memory, which is something to be avoided in about:memory.
