Actually, speaking of the IDE... I started using it recently, and I find it extremely useful. The only bugbears I have are with that editor. Bugbear 1: The Ctrl key doesnt work. if you hold down ctrl and use the arrow keys, it should shift the cursor left or right one word. (it doesn't right now) Bugbear 2: The Delete key should remove the character to the right of the cursor. at the moment, it removes one character to the left, and one to the right. Bugbear 3: >The way it pops up >now is a bit intrusive, to say the least. I agree. If we could have a function key mapped to toggle that on and off when it pops up, that would be very nice. Ask for Features (ie not bugbears :)) *When you set 'owner' of a control, it gives you a dropdown list? *Make the namespace a little more tolerant of typing. IE atm it doesnt like you deleting all the characters in the name attribute before typing in a new one. If it could hold off until it loses focus, then perhaps that would be better. Anyway, a fine effort Judith, David. Keep it up. ===================================================== .______<-------------------\__ / _____<--------------------__|=== ||_ <-------------------/ \__| Mr Trick >From: petelomax at blueyonder.co.uk >Reply-To: EUforum at topica.com >To: EUforum <EUforum at topica.com> >Subject: Re: Eu Editors >Date: Mon, 05 Aug 2002 11:23:11 +0100 > > >On Mon, 5 Aug 2002 00:08:26 +0200, Henri Goffin <H.Goffin at skynet.be> >wrote: > > >Here's my contribution for UltraEdit (V9.10) > >[!?]Context-sensitive EU-specific help (as per (4)) > >With Judith's IDE there is a (demo) editor.exw which, editing eg > >constant EditMenu = create( Menu, "&Edit", CalcWin, 0, 28, 0, 0, 0 ) > >when cursor is between the '(' and ')', it shows a tip of the form: > >function create (integer class,sequence caption,atom parent,integer x, >integer y,integer cx,integer cy,integer flags) > >with the parameter the cursor is on shown in bold.
