Hi Trixx, nice reply. Investing a few hours isn't the problem. When I am new to something, I often find the weak spots first, sometimes forget the whole thing. But I'm giving myself a second chance with IDEal and maybe it will work out. I'm a hardcore blitz IDE user and I can't use it anymore because of the numerous bugs, specially dealing with big sources.

Yes, I have configured the colors to my likings, but for any new user, he will find the blitz colors not at all like what bliltz was and will not find the right contender. I took 20 minutes to find decent colors that won't damage my eyes.

The indentation problem is to me quite serious. And since I foudn these bugs on the most recent version, I'm not thinking if it is a documented bug. Anyhow, I've put images and just need to make sure I pass my point through, because I am stuck with the behaviour, you see(?).

I need to mention also that if I decided to declare my variable without stating if it is local, to me isn't a mistake as blitz will make it local anyway, and to me it makes sense. If IDEal says it's bad text, I'll just ignore. or maybe there should be filters for the strict mode?

Now, the ESC code ALT + 2 7 to me is essential, as I am developping a terminal emulator and it works with ANSI codes and such. I'm not asking really for support on this, but just to have the IDE not scramble the colors on the lines that I put the escape character. Entering the code to me is iomportant, but I can do copy/paste (I suppose?)

Trixx, if you have a test version with support for ESC code and other various control code support, I'll check that out and give you feedback. Abrexxes convinced me to come here, it's all his fault.

Question, are you in contact with MixailV? Is he still talkative? I'm kind of worried about his FastText and FastImage.

Thanks.

:P
