Hi, for all interested BLIde users, a new BETA version with the new BLIde core engine is available.
This beta version has the following limitation:
There are also some changes in the usual BLIde functionality. This changes are the indirect result of the new core engine:

This beta version has the following limitation:
The custom-defined editor colors and fonts is not yet suported. A default color scheeme will be used instead.
There are also some changes in the usual BLIde functionality. This changes are the indirect result of the new core engine:
-BLIde no longer hilites the custom editing scope (this is no longer suported by the new Actipro text render engine)
-BLIde by default works with a reduced set of hilighting keywords, but the non hilighted keywords are case-corrected when you change the line you're editing. (like in visual studio, this reduces A LOT memory usage).
-BLIde perform case-correction when a line of code is fully edited, and not as you type (this also speeds things a lot)
-BLIde now supports different fonts and sizes for different hilighting definitions in the same document.
-The 'red background mark' is no longer suported, it has been replaced with a wave-line error mark (this is how most pro editors display code errors).
-The find and Replce dialog now has A LOT of extra features
-Now F3 can be used as a 'find next' shortcut
-There have been several improvements on intellisense and project file handling
-There have been several improvements in module inspection
-All the Out of memory, code editor freeze, and bugs like those, have been completely removed with the new core engine.
-Autolists now shows quickinfo tips with useful inoformation about the selected item.
-folded region tips now show hilited text
-Document parsing is done when a document needs to be shown for first time, not when a document is loaded, that reduces drastically the project loading time.
-Autolists are shown also in rem and end rem regions (the region recognition before an autolist is thrown is under development, not really a 'missing feature')
-Unicode bug solved in "BLIde 0-7-61 unicode fix" is now integrated in the current BETA version.
