Code Edit is now open source. Someone requested it via e-mail, and I responded "There's no point in keeping it from the world because it's not that good anyway."

Code Edit finally has syntax highlighting! It comes set up to handle html, java, C/C++, pas, asm, and bat files. You can customize how those files are color coded and make color coding for other file types. It also now has a File|New dialox box that creates files with default text. There is different default text for different file types and it can be customized however you like.
A Delphi Tip on how to do Syntax Highlighting has been added.
The Delphi Tip "Converting Long File Names to Short File Names" has been changed to Conversion between Long and Short File Names.
C++ class BitString has been added.

The first part of My Programming Philosophy page used a funciton called GetRecArea which I had the wrong output for, and my "correct" way of writting it in my Questions page was also wrong. Now I am using a function called GetPageCount which works this time. I once heard that "if you haven't tested [a program], it doesn't work." That's a good, untrue assumption to make which I did not for GetRecArea.

This What's New Page--perhaps it will motivate me to do more with each update, so this page won't look so skimpy
Code Edit, my premiere Delphi program, has been updated to version 1.5. It's still does not have syntax highlighting, which will be the goal of the next version, but the way you run programs (both through the Run Menu and Execute Menu) has been greatly changed. It's a little less user friendly, but much more powerful. Code Edit should be able to run any program as it is supposed to be run, including java compilers and interpreters, something version 1.4 could not do. It now also has a "real" help menu instead of just hypertext pages, as well as bug fixes and many other little changes.
