Well, I've been using my own EE for a while now, and I've only found one
tiny bug. Anyone else found any?

The tiny bug in question occurs in the colours in places like this:

    s = s[1..length(s)-1]
           ^^^^^^^^

Technical bit:
As an extra feature, some of you may have noticed that I added the names
of the standard libraries to the keyword colouration library, to help make
code more readable. To do this, however, I had to change the character
class of the fullstop (period, whatever :) ) to LETTER. This then means
that any dot before a letter stops it showing up if it's part of a keyword
or builtin.

There are four workarounds/solutions to the 'bug':
1)  s = s[1 .. length(s)-1]
           ^^^^ add spaces

2) Comment out the "char_class['.'] = LETTER" line in color.e.
   If you do this permanently, you may wish to delete the entries for the
   library [.e] files in keywords.e, as they don't work with this
   workaround...

3) Add a CHAMELEON char_class, and place '.' in it. Add the necessary
   behavioural code.

4) Wait for me to implement and test #3. :)

The bug does not affect your programs. Just how they look on screen.

Any other comments on the EEditor?
