Hi,
I understand I shall not expect something extra++. I realize very well how laborous each and every feature is to tune.  I have a great respect to what currently the IDE does, i find the whole project amazing.

But editing text is something very basic. Of course I can use e.g. PSPad
to edit it and then test it under batch calling - I have Autoit
interactive menu for this already.... Then calling screenshots with my
own names would be also good practice, I know. BTW thanks for the tip
with the two directories and same names.

Anyway, the IDE is very comfortable providing the thumbnails and
visually I found it extremely useful very quickly and addicted to it. It
is another dimension in maintaing of code where you seek for some visual
pattern.

therefore I would very welcome, if those little annoying misbehaviours
could be somehow fixed.

Another example that I forgot to mention:
   you select the whole line  HOME   SHIFT End   CTRL+C
then jump to a new line, so far so good, then you want to paste
CTRL+V
and....... :-( you indentation is corrupted and notice it is ALWAYS corrupted regardless you stand at the very beginning or at the previous level

Then again  space space space space like a robot

You mentioned Tabs.

Well, I have come across some discussions (on Python?) that told that we shall never intermix tabs and spaces
it may be that tabs are conevrted to spaces in this specific IDE but I am not sure and want to avoid awkward errors so I adhere to said recomendations rather trying to use spaces only...

and the problém with tha fact that the icon is overcomeoble only by
ARROW not Shift+Arrow is something I get stuck on million of times every
day. It is like chronic repeating issue that makes me desperate.
