-Gabor's log to 27/11/2000 commits
-========================= Already fixed ================================
-
- [*] no files were shown in the Block Read and Block Write dialogs (the file
-     mask used was empty)
-
-========================= Improvements ================================
-
- [+] support for positioning cursor in codetemplates added (you've to place
-     a filter ("|") char where you want the cursor positioned after insertion
-     of the code template)
- [+] result of calculation can now be pasted into editors by pressing
-     Ctrl+Enter in the calculator
- [+] when the codetemplate shortcut isn't recognized, then the CodeTemplates
-     dialog is shown, enabling the user to select the desired template
- [+] the block indent size can now be set in the Editor Options dialog
-
-Gabor's log to 18/10/2000 commits
-========================= Improvements ================================
-
- [+] HTML keyword index file stores now relative paths, thus it can be
-     moved/copied freely as long as relative paths are preserved
- [+] history lists added at several points (like run parameters, ini
-     file name, compiler conditionals, etc.)
-
-Gabor's log to 18/09/2000 commits
-========================= Already fixed ================================
-
- [*] editor flags weren't stored in desktop file
- [*] TFastBufStream contained a bug which showed up when using non-linear
-     (eg. "random") reads, and resulted in returning data from wrong file
-     position
-
-========================= Improvements ================================
-
- [+] added support for OS/2 help files (.INF) to the help system
- [+] started implementing fold support (it's not yet fully functional!!!)
-
-     Folds enable you to hide specific parts of the documents (independantly
-     of each other). When a fold is hidden only it's first line (the fold
-     header) is show - all other lines (the fold body) and all subfolds do
-     not appear on screen. Folds can be also nested.
-     This is very useful for ex. to hide the implementation part of a
-     procedure, while leaving the procedure header still visible. This greatly
-     simplyfies navigation in the source file by temporarily hiding currently
-     unused content.
-     Fold information could be (optionally) gerenated automatically by the
-     compiler, according to the control/syntax-tree of the program.
-
-     Folds can be created manually by selecting an area and the pressing
-     Ctrl-K-A. Valids are fold areas that do not cross bounds of already
-     existing folds.
-     Fold bodies can be hidden with Ctrl-Gray-, shown with Ctrl-Gray+.
-     Pressing Ctrl-Gray* toggles the visibility of a fold body.

-Gabor's log to 10/8/2000 commits
-========================= Already fixed ================================
-
- [*] 'Auto save editor files' option did the opposite than expected, due
-     to a typo in FPIDE.PAS
-
-========================= Improvements ================================
-
- [+] saving of source files before compilation is no longer neccessary.
-     When a modified editor file is involved in the compilation, then the
-     IDE saves it's contents to a memory stream and passes this to the
-     compiler (instead of the file on the disk)
-Gabor's log to 19/7/2000 commits
-========================= Improvements ================================
-
- [+] the .ini parser now handles string delimiters more flexible
-     (you can now include quotation-marks in an entry value if you use no
-      delimiters at all, or if you use aphostrophes as delimiters)
- [+] new .TDF view type added: MEMO.
-     Memos can have an additional property, "FileName". After closing the
-     toolparams dialog box the contents of the memo are saved in a file,
-     and the reference to the memo field in the tool command-line is
-     replaced with the name of this file. (If no filename is specified the
-     file is stored under a unique name in the temp dir.)

-========================= Already fixed ================================
-
- [*] temporary files are now delete on exit

-     in it now, when it can't find the file itself

-     semicolons) as single filenames, whereas they're more like wildchar
-     masks

-     however, they're actually dirspecs
-
-========================== Other improvements ============================

-     operation when the help file version was incorrect (it resulted in
-     fatal exit)
- [*] the cursor position in TSymbolScopeView was independant of the current
-     horizontal scroll offset
- [*] the value of string constant wasn't displayed correctly in the symbol
-     browser (they were typecasted to PStrings, however they are PChars now)
- [*] partial syntax highlight messed up CodeComplete
- [*] the HTML link scanner wasn't aware of bookmark links
-
-========================== Other improvements ============================
-
- [+] added support for TP5.5 format help files

-     when they don't fit in the title area of the source window
- [+] template macros implemented (you can use them in the .PT files)
-     $TIME - actual time
-     $DATE - actual date

- [+] the size of some windows is now dependant on the current resolution
- [+] all IDE strings contants converted to resourcestrings
- [+] /hm command-line switch for enabling/disabling heap monitor
-
-=========================== Todo ========================================

- [!] convert all API,FV,etc. message strings to resourcestrings
- [!] add "Find in files" command, probably using internal grep routine
- [!] implement Projects & project managment
-     - specifying project files
-     - todo list mangment
-     - generating project list file
-Gabor's log 25/4/2000 commits
-
-========================= Fixes to apply ==============================
-
-The GO32 mouse.inc (API) displays a message ("No mouse driver found!") when
-it doesn't find a mouse driver. This message should be removed.
-
-========================= Already fixed ================================
-
- [*] when saving a file with different name (or saving a new file) the
-     default extension of '.pas' wasn't applied to the name specified
- [*] THelpViewer didn't care about LockFlag, and thus flickered on complex
-     updates
- [*] sever sheets of the symbol browser were selectable thru keyboard, even
-     when they were disabled/non-visible
- [*] Ctrl--> and Ctrl-<- skipped over '[' and ']'
- [*] unsaved new windows (nonamexx.pas) aren't stored to desktop file any more
-     (on the next startup the IDE tried to open the file with no name)
- [*] clock view didn't stay in the upper left corner when the desktop has been
-     resized (for ex. at video-mode change)
- [*] the IDE didn't switch correctly between video modes
-     (especially 80x50 caused trouble)
- [*] buttons in Breakpoints window didn't move when resizing the window
- [*] tracking source didn't work correctly (for ex. in symbol browser,msgs,..)
- [*] symbol browser didn't respond to Ctrl+Enter (goto source)
- [*] symbol browser views' behaviour unified
- [*] BuildObjectTree failed to build the object tree correctly when there were
-     multiple objects defined with the same name. for ex. in object pascal mode
-     there are 2 objects called TObject (the built-in base object for classes
-     and the one in objects.pp) and thus the entire object tree of TObject
-     object was "lost"
- [*] in the linking state the text 'Please wait...' is displayed now, instead
-     of 'Press Esc to cancel' (which won't work and is incorrect)
- [+] Inheritance symbol viewer scrolls now, and acts on [Ctrl+]Left,Right keys
-
-========================== Other improvements ============================
-
- [+] at startup the IDE checks whether there's a file called FP.ANS in any
-     of the search directories, and if it founds one, then loads it as the
-     background for the desktop (the file is interpreted as an ANSI file)
-     (Peter, you can finally put your favorite FPC-logo on your desktop now ;)
- [+] 'Auto track source' option implemented (-> symbol browser)
- [+] 'Compiler messages' window is only shown when there's something to
-     display (ie. if there's no error/message, then it won't be shown)
-
-=========================== Todo ========================================

-Gabor's log for 18/4/2000 commits
-
-========================= Already fixed ================================
-
- [*] THTMLTopicRenderer didn't handle table tags (<TABLE>,<TR>,<TH>,<TD>)
- [*] the IDE didn't prompt the user for saving modified files at exit, when
-     there were multiple editor windows open for the same file
- [*] the IDE didn't respond to some hotkeys (for ex. Alt+F3) after a success-
-     ful compilation
-
-========================== Other improvements ============================
-
- [+] HTML index generation added. This enables users to index any collection
-     of HTML files, for ex. the HTML version of the FPC docs.
-     This way we can finally get a WinAPI help for the IDE. The user simply
-     has to download a .chm version of the WinAPI help, decompile it with the
-     M$ HTML Help Workshop, and install it as a help file...
-     (however this will only work in a DOS box under W9X, or with the win32
-     version of IDE, as these HTML files use long filenames)
- [+] TCodeEditor acts now on several additional keys, like
-     Ctrl+O+A - Open at cursor      , Ctrl+O+B - Browse at cursor      ,
-     Ctrl+O+G - Go to line number   , Ctrl+O+O - Insert options        ,
-     Ctrl+O+U - Toggle case of char , Ctrl+O+L - Select line           ,
-     Ctrl+K+S - Save file           , Ctrl+K+D - Activate menubar      ,
-     Ctrl+K+N - Block to uppercase  , Ctrl+K+O - Block to lowercase    ,
-     Ctrl+K+E - Word to lowercase   , Ctrl+K+F - Word to uppercase     ,
-     Ctrl+Q+E - Jump to top of wnd  , Ctrl+Q+T - Jump to top of wnd    ,
-     Ctrl+Q+U - Jump to bottom of wnd,Ctrl+Q+X - Jump to bottom of wnd ,
-     Ctrl+Q+[ - find delimiter-match, Ctrl+Q+] - find delimited match (backw)
