Hi Pete,

Some early feedback on the new Edita:

First, thanks for the huge effort and try to forget the tab-8 hassle smile

-i changed my colors to my preferred black background with appropriate
changes to the other colors.  This caused a formatting problem when I clicked
the '?' button, so I exited Edita, and re-loaded.  This time the '?' gave
a black screen with black letters.

-When I loaded a .ew file, the Run was grayed-out, so no error check could
be done.  In fact, maybe a feature could be added: allow an error-check run
on any file without actually running it.  Automatically saving an .ex or
other runnable file as a temporary .e or .ew, etc file and running that
would be a way.

-No tooltips showed for me if you had them.

-Minor issue: the bottom of your manual is run-together in the browser.

-I clicked on MANUAL and got the web copy, though I have a copy on my
machine.  Can you give an option for this, or something editable in the .ini
file?

Good catch. In eaqj.ew, there are two instances of
void = c_func(xSetBkMode , {wParam, TRANSPARENT})
	return {backBrush}

which need a
void = c_func(xSetTextColor, {wParam, ColourTab[Other]})

before them.

While I've disabled the toolbar and menu entries for .ew files on request, you
can still press F5 to do this.

Strange, they work fine here.

Thanks, I'll fix that.

Assuming you have installed in C:\Program Files\Edita, it checks for
C:\Program Files\Edita\docs\manual.htm.

Is Edita supposed to work with Euphoria version 3.0+?

When I run it inside the editor with F5, I get this error:

> C:\EUPHORIA\include\file.e:185
> Syntax error - expected to see an expression, not an illegal character
>           find(path_name[$], {' ', SLASH}) do

> Press Enter...

$ is not illegal in Euphoria. It is a short hand meaning length(sequence_name)
So, your F5 must be using an older version of Euphoria? And since Euphoria does
not change so often in recent years, I think you should look into this. Maybe you
are keeping a different version since Arwen relies on it?

The problem is that the program is trying to run using the interpreter that
Edita has (which is 2.4) with your Euphoria 3.0 include files.
I was about to report the same problem. I've just took a quick check at edita's
source and it seems the procedure in charge of looking the interpreter is scan()
in eacons.ew file.
If I make some time today i'll try to trace the problem.

Hi Andy,
I've fixed the problem, as I guessed, it was executing exw.exe in Edita's
   directory which is 2.4 version.
I already emailed Pete and he will include the fix shortly.
Meanwhile I'll send it to your mail, I hope you don't mind it.
If anyone else needs it before Pete releases the official fixed version, just
tell me.

Best regards,
    Guillermo BonvehĂ­
