Wow, this is an awesome tool
I was looking for an editor for my 11 year old nephew to use to learn c64 basic programming and stumbled onto this this.
Great stuff, amazing that your kept this project going for 2 years now?
Perhaps some feedback I'm imagining will come when my nephew uses it is, "Why doesn't it work more like MS Notepad?".
Eg:
- Selecting text via mouse-click + drag
- Cut/copy/paste via ctrl+x/c/v
- Search via CTRL+F
- Standard windows text selection shortcuts:
- ctrl+shift+left/right to select word-by-word
- home, shift+end to select a line
Currently, I'm running it from Linux-mono, working fine, I was able to hook it up to ccs64 emulator too via your ini file.
Some gripes I've noticed (they 'might' be linux-specific, not sure, haven't tried the app in real windows yet):
- On a large program (eg, I opened your 'videopoker.prg') When I Ctrl+End to go to end of document, the last few lines of the document are below the bottom-edge of the screen. I have to drag the bottom-edge of the screen further down to see them.
- Using Alt+Arrows/1,2,3...9,0 for the special characters within strings has the quirk of once you've finished with the alt-key, it highlights the 'File' menu-item, so find myself having to press Alt again to bring focus back onto editing area.
Minor things, but thought they were worth a mention. Anyway, awesome work, congrats on your perseverance with this project
