1. edita runs under Linux/wine
for what its worth...
Just for fun I downloaded Pete's latest version of edita to see if
it would run under wine. I have only played arround with it for a
few minutes, but it seems to run smoothly. I have failry high
resolution settings on my monitor and the default fonts were hard
to read, but I was easily able to adjust the fonts for the files being
edited. However, the menu fonts appear miniscule - not sure if I can
adjust those from the edita source code. Tiny fonts are also a
frustration with the wxIDE.
Here are the error messages reported from the gnome-terminal.
Segmentation fault sounds pretty scary - but thats really only
a windows trade mark, right? ;)

I just thought this might be of interest to any Euphoria dos/win
programmer planning an escape to freedom.

Yes, allowing the user to change the font size is something I've been
planning on doing, but haven't gotten around to. Since you've asked,
I'll move it up on the list. Right now, you have to edit the source.
In function Syntax2() in wxIDE_Syntax.e, you'll see where the font is
created. The next release will have the ability to change the font...

Thanks Matt,
I really appreciate your fine efforts in developing wxEU/IDE for us.
Many moons ago I fiddled arround with the wxIDE source code until I
was able to create a satisfactory sized font for the files being edited -
that little exercise gave me a deep appreciation for all you have accomplished
with WxEU~. I never did figure out how to size the label and menu fonts.
However, the lack of a search/find/replace
feature is probably the foremost reason that I quit useing wxIDE.
Thanks again,

Thanks, good to know.

A google search gave the following answer:
In the win.ini file in your windows directory, add the following:
[Desktop]
menufontsize=18

Probably

Ooh, I hadn't thought about the labels and menus. I guess I figured that
GTK would take care of that based on system settings. The replace function
needs to be better. I think it really only works as 'Replace All'.
