Capture console output - edita 0.0.7

After 10 days hard slog, console capture seems to be working:

http://palacebuilders.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/edita.htm

Date and time in the status bar now show the locale user default 
settings (as set in control panel, regional settings).

Added tab text colourisation to show file requires saving. The tab 
colour is properly reset by undo to the exact point of the last file 
save.

Save as now resets the syntax if save with a different file 
extension, esp. if saving an [untitled] (aka new) file, and also 
resets the tab bar text.

Some bugs in text selection near the end of a line and in text 
deletion fixed.

Added context menu to the edit area.

Added Capture console i/o. Pressing F5 runs test2.exw as a demo. [More
work is required to complete the run program logic, esp. save files 
before run]. Output is in a new re-sizeable message area.

Pete
PS can someone independently verify the length of this (in bytes):
typedef struct _CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO { // csbi 
    COORD      dwSize; 
    COORD      dwCursorPosition; 
    WORD       wAttributes; 
    SMALL_RECT srWindow; 
    COORD      dwMaximumWindowSize; 
} CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO ; 

where
typedef struct _COORD { // coord. 

    SHORT X;      // horizontal coordinate 
    SHORT Y;      // vertical coordinate 
} COORD; 
and
typedef struct _SMALL_RECT { // srct 

    SHORT Left; 
    SHORT Top; 
    SHORT Right; 
    SHORT Bottom; 
} SMALL_RECT; 
(I think it is either 22 or 24 bytes)
