My concern map editor is progressing rapidly. I have now integrated the visual language with the IDE and code query functionality, so users can interactively navigate from model to associated code.

The editor currently allows users to use three different sorts of queries (called selectors) - regular expressions, file names and code queries (essentially an XPath over a represention of .Net source code). I'll probably add in some sort of desktop search and a richer code query (more like AspectJ) when I get some time.

Map, with four concepts

The same map, with selectors attached to some of the concepts

Double clicking a concept evaluates selectors and loads matching documents
