Hello, as the previous thread was becoming a little bit long, I've started a new one.
This is the latest BLIde update. For newcomers, BLIde is an Integrated Development Environment for BlitzMax (for windows).

For more information, take a look at www.blide.org

This is the changelog for this version:
# Speccific hilighting routine for compiler directives.

# Some fixes on the smart text formater

# Some important fixes on the unicode / international support.

# Fixes and improvements in the debuger.

# improvements to the BLIde internal intelliprompt API,

# The backspace character is also throwing context-based autolists with pre-entered text matching.

# BLIde will now serialize the layout when a BLIde project is saved, so when the project is re-loaded, all the BLIde windows, panels and open documents will be exactly in the same state they where when the project was saved the last time.

# As always, all this changes in the BLIde file format are back-wards compatible with previous versions.

# improvements on the BPP interpreter that now works about 2 o 3 times faster in all the plug-in comunicactions, allowing a double threaded execution of plugins :D (dual core optimized, obviously).

# Fixed a bug that could make BLIde become irresponsive after a compilation error when compiling C++ source code using the MinGW compiler

# Improved the "Self" and "Super" type detection in the intelliprompt area, spetially in the scope-matching mechanism (Thanks to H&K)

# Some improvements on the graphics/windows area, flickering has been reduced a lot, sptially when loading big projects

# Fixed: If the save icon or shortcut is hit with a new file open, it lets you save the file without haveing to put a space or the like in the listing (Thanks to H&K)

# Color for compiler directives is again available on this version

# Fixed: BLIde no longer asks you to save the project if it has been already saved and not modified when closing BLIde

# Fixed: Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V are now working on the console window (Thanks to speedbrusher)

# Fixed: When an update was available, BLIde was opening a wrong URL destination (Thanks to speedbrusher)

# Fixed: Message windows can now be closed using the ESC key (Thanks to speedbrusher)

# Fixed: The braces matching hilighting on the code window is now customizable on the preferences dialog

# Fixed: Pressing CTRL-S when editing a "Single .bmx file" rather than a "BLide Project" was causing a "Can't save project because there's no project loaded" error. This has been fixed to the standard used in every program for saving whatever you're working on. (Thanks to Chalky)

# Fixed: Ctrl+V now works in the dialog box (Thanks to Chalky)

# Fixed: A bug on multi threading that could cause BLIde become irresponsive in some very raro situations

# Changed: Intellipromt icons are smaller, and have a new simpler look.


# NEW: Very important improvement in the code analizer. Now it detects unused local variables, local variables that are declared, initialized but not really user, local variables that are used before they get a value, and a lot of improvements in code-block matching. See TIPS and TRICKS in the BLIde website to get more info about this new code analizer.


I'm spetially happy with the new code analizer algorithm, for more information take a look at: http://www.blide.org/tricks.htm


Please, uninstall previous version of BLIde. Deleting the BLIde folder is not needed, just the add/remove programs operation.
