I'm not always sure what the function is I'm looking for though, so that's why I prefer to have a file with say 500 lines I can quickly scroll through.

PHPdocumentor or Doxygen might be worth having a look at, then - makes life easier while developing, as well as being an easy way of providing decent maintenance docs, but might not be as fast as scanning through a controller.

I could change the URL's. Right now i have example.com/client/product/update. Client is the file with 2000 lines and I would have been better of just having a controller called Product (and the same for factory, user and all the other 2nd segments). Problem is I don't really have the courage to start changing URL's with deadlines and all, even though it probably would be quite painless.

$ git branch controller_split
... then pick one component to split up, relocate your views into a new sub-directory that matches the new controller .. maybe an hour or two to determine how much work would be involved in doing a few. You're right, though, that deadline-pending moments are not the best to experiment.

No, but I'll give another shot and get back to you. Yes I did check the manual and tried $CI =& get_instance();

Oh, do you remember what kind of errors you were getting? Most of the time it's people subsequently using $this-> rather than $CI-> , or creating something weird like $this->CI and then getting confused when they look at references in the CI manual.
