Sylvain,
I like the editor; Its better than the TopSpeed editor even. The "feel"of
the environment is nice. It just suffers from two bugs and two features
that make it essentially unuseable for most of the projects I had in mind:
inaccurated real arithmetic; innaccurate string operations; inability to
link to other language object modules; debugger that changes the value
reported for enumerated types when the variable's position on the debugger
window changes.
If the product were supported by the nwe owners the way it was when Martin
was around, I wouldn't be so down on it, but since it is unlikely that we
will see updates/bug fixes I'll just have to can it.
I guess since no one else has these problems that I just missed some
update after 1.10 compiler (I got 1.11 libs — I seem to recall that was
the $25 – $35 update everyone grumbled about — but no compiler update. SO
I can't compile the "fixes" that users have U'Led to the Vendor forum.)
