1. Edita mouse wheel scroll?
I downloaded Edita 0.1.3 and I must say - It's very nice! I'm looking
forward to having all the features I love in MEditor in Edita. But I
have a problem - I think you're interpreting the mouse wheel up/down
backwards, because when I scroll my mouse wheel up, the text scrolls
down, and vice versa. My mouse wheel scrolls fine in IE.
And I must definitely push for "project management" - I'm sure you
know how frustrating it is having lots of files to edit for one
project. Just try working on the Euphoria 2.5 PD source, then another
project for a while, then Eu source again!

I find it helps to use the terminology "away" and "towards". When turning the
wheel away from the user, the scrollbar goes up, when turning towards the users
the scrollbar goes down.

In that case, I would turn the wheel "away" from me and the scroll bar
would go down, and when turning the wheel "towards" me, it would go
up. That's backwards. :)
I have now tested this on two computers, as I was at my uncle's house
showing him an example of a Euphoria app when this happened (I needed
something in exe form, so I downloaded Edita). I am now home and have
tested it on my computer, and it does the same thing. Both have XP -
his mouse is a generic USB optical type, mine is a PS/2 optical
trackball.

I'm sorry, but I didn't make myself very clear. I was *not* talking about the
Edita behaviour. I should have said ...
"I find it helps to use the terminology 'away' and 'towards'. In any
application, when turning the wheel away from the user, the scrollbar should go
up, and when turning towards the users the scrollbar should go down."

OK, this has been fixed and uploaded. There is also a new toolbar:
http://palacebuilders.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/edita.htm#download
I think what might have helped me not make the mistake is that the
mousewheel moves the thumb on the vertical scrollbar, not the view.
Or possibly I should just have compared the behaviour with any other
application, even MEditor which I pinched some of the code from
