1. Win32Lib IDE Extra Lines
I've been using David Cuny's IDE (a great help!), and have been troubled by
the same extra lines that Irv has been stripping out. It seems that the
problem comes from an extra '\n' being added to the puts() used in the
writeControlToPrj/Exw in lines 121 and 233 of IDE_PROJ.EW.
Keep up the good work, Dave! I like the multiple window support in the
bleeding edge version. Having read (and peeked at the code) for the code
editors, this may not be very easy, but a nice feature would be to have the
code edit control resize with the window, to make writing code easier in
there. Currently, I've been using the IDE to create the interface, and
writing most of the program using EE, since I can have more code on the
screen.

Many thanks! I will patch my copy of the IDE, until Dave gets around
to the next update.

Good suggestion. Also, there are problems when deleting characters in
the last line of the edit window. Cursor jumps a couple of lines up, but
this
causes no loss of data, if you're prepared for it, and don't keep hitting
the
bksp key blindly.

Thanks, I'll try to get the fix into the latest bleeding edge - probably
late tonight or tomorrow. I've got a number of other minor fixes (like
getItem) that are in the release as well. I've been busy with other stuff,
so Euphoria's taken the back seat for a while.

That should not be too not that difficult; the GENERIC demo pretty much does
the same thing.
Thanks again!

Whoops! The solution was a little more involved than I thought. You
actually need to check the sequence that's being puts()'d to see if it has a
'\n' at the end. If not, you need to add it, or any new code you write
becomes one very long line.
Here's what I changed in writeControlToPrj in IDE_PROJ.EW
for k = 1 to length( ctrl[Code][j] ) do
if ctrl[Code][j][k][length( ctrl[Code][j][k] )] = '\n' then
-- Need to check for '\n' to avoid adding blank lines
puts( outFile, ctrl[Code][j][k] )
else
puts( outFile, ctrl[Code][j][k] & '\n' )
end if
end for
The same thing goes for writeControlToEXW. Prolly figured it out already,
Irv, but I thought I should mention it...

That looks more like it, and explains why I wasn't able to duplicate the
errors.
Thanks again!
