Re: Wishlist IDE
Yes, I have thought about the window style param, as I was dusting
off and working on the exw to prj conversion program I wrote last year. Back
then I only caught the 'create' statements and now I want to get all the
procedures/functions. I can trap the style into the prj file for reloading
but I havn't decided on the best way to introduce them into IDE. The
Properties box may be a good idea, thanks for that suggestion. I have also
discovered that we need a general code event (somebody give me an event name
for this) that would go prior to the create statements (right now all the on
event code, including general, goes after the create) and I hope to get that
in this week with the fix for the beeping editor.
The way I tried the RichEdit colorization was to color as it is loaded into
the richedit and then color line segments as keying takes place. I didn't do
this with the IDE editor but with a version I use in my own multiple file
editor which reads up to 7 entire exw files. What takes so much time is the
preload step. But, as has been pointed out to me, any on event with the
exception of general should be fairly small. So I may throw it into an
alternate editor module and let the group decide. It sure makes the editor
easier to work with!
