Beta 1.0.3 - Added Crtl+W to close current source tab, suppressed an extra quote when using Auto-Complete Quotes option, added some options to the Plug-Ins list: Exclude (Rename)-it appends ".exclude" to the end of the dll to exclude it from being used (wip); Open Folder-Opens the Plug-ins folder containing the dll; Refresh-refreshes the Plug Ins list.

Beta 1.0.4 - Fixed some 'Tools->Options' and 'Run Last Compile' errors. Ran this version on two computers running Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) and seemed to work as expected, with the exception of finding the DBPro install path. 64 bit users should be able to manually set this in Options for now.

Beta 1.0.5 - Minor adjustments. And a download that contains something
.

Beta 1.0.6 - Fixed the issue with the crashing with a new Indigo_Keywords.ini file. Fixed a bug with preliminary code for the ‘Case Fix Up’ option that was in 1.0.4. Added an ‘Imports’ windows that shows Media, Icons, and Cursors that are to be imported into the project. I personally don’t do this (yet), so I have not “fully” tested this. If someone does do this could you please test to make sure that your projects compiles and performs as expected? With a test/ copy project of cause
. Completed the ‘Auto Case Fix Up’ option.

Beta 1.0.7 - A lot of little fixes through out (highlighting, autocomplete, and casing fix up issues mostly). Still have minor issues with creating a new project. Need to add types to autocomplete list.
[2010-01-25]
Beta 1.0.8 - Syntax highlighting should be at 92%. Removed local variables from highlighting (for now). Added a basic Snippet library and a To-Do List.
Please remove all 1.0.4 or older files before installing the new version.
