It would be nice if there were an optional expandable/collapsable column on the far left [left of the row number], where you could enter text. eg to write measure numbers.
Well, it's a bit unconventional from the way trackers work. Mind you, there are already "measure" numbers in the tracker itself.
A measure is called a frame in FamiTracker &, if you have a look in the left corner where that black box full of numbered lines is, 00 is your first frame (it's just a matter of getting used to the interface). This said, it could be useful to have a commenting system in the tracker so that you can keep notes in the file itself (such as a todo list or whatever).

Yeah, module comments are a good existing place to store notes about the track.
I like the idea of being able to annotate directly in line with the music; I am usually not using the DMC so I'll stick cryptic effect symbols in there to remind myself of various things. It'd be nicer if I could just type text.
Honestly though, this seems a really low priority suggestion. A lot of programming work for very meagre payoff.
ok i understand if its too difficult. frames are not the same as measure numbers. a frame may contain 1/2, 1, or 2 or more measures depending on the [b]current[/b] speed/tempo/timesig. plus if u copypaste frames to simulate a [b]repeat bar[/b], the frame numbers increase whearas the measure number would not, and thus they would be out of sync. i suppose what i could do is use the [b]effect column[/b] of an unused channel to mark measures.
