Ah well me too, at least initially, but after specifying the compiler in the drop down box it worked for me. Took me a little while to realise that though because the docs are a bit out of date plus i think my system was a little unstable at the time, read on...
Trying to block comment some code did result in an access violation here at one stage, but to its credit the IDE did not crash and the code remained intact, and anyway that was a one off because it works now, after a reboot. Lets face it, Win98SE can be a nasty piece of work.
I have a few minor niggles. # receives the same highlighting as a string % and $ nothing (I think they should receieve the type highlight?), and only the first variable in a multi-line define like Local var1,var2,var3 etc is picked up on as an identifier for the number list and types if first in such statements are also identified as normal numeric variables.
It may be an idea to allow highlighting schemes to be specified for each compiler.
It does not support function folding, but that has never been something i have worried much about and besides the function list is alpha ordered.
Anyway for something that is free, it is pretty impressive with plenty of additional features, like autocorrect and a decent undo and a built in to do list. Worth a look.
Here is a blitz like highlighting scheme. Save as blitz.ini in the Indeed schemes folder and load it using the syntax styles tab on the editor preferences dialog.
