Hi Martin,
I was pointed to Mikael's program by an Italian friend, Carlo Ottolina, who
told the lugnet.loc.it community NQCEdit is very good:
http://news.lugnet.com/loc/it/?n=7365
I tried your brother's program and, from what I've seen up to now, it's
almost perfect. There's just one unexpected feature, I wouldn't say a bug,
that I want to point to your attention to: when you compile a program
NQCEdit automatically saves your source file. This is not stated anywhere
and a user probably expects that he can compile the program from IDE, just
to test it, without getting the source file saved.
Suppose I want to test if a particular statement compiles well: I open one
of my old NQC programs, insert somewhere a new statement, click "compile",
look what happens then close NQCEdit. That made a permanent modification to
my old source file!
I guess that normally IDEs compile source code form temporary files. That
should not be very difficult to implement.
I must admit I didn't use NQCEdit it extensively yet, so ther *might* be
other areas where NQCEdit still needs modifications, but that's all what I
discovered up to now. It is compact, fast, has a very good editor and seems
absolutely stable. A great job. I definitely gave up the idea to update
myself the Delphi source code of RcxCC.
Ciao
