Emergency bugfix release 100206..

Important fix that slipped in last minute. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Releasing Alpha Milestone 2..

OK, this is going to be a big upgrade! Time for Milestone 2!.

The IDE went under a review for any inconsistencies and all bug reports were chased and closed. If you have had crashes before or you have reported an issue, the problem is most likely gone! Thanks a lot for all the great feedbacks and please keep them coming!

• NEW: Debugger is back online! It is rewritten to support all major Python platforms in the future. Currently supports CPython 2.7, 2.6 and 2.5. (You will need simplejson lib installed with 2.5)
• NEW: Theming system improved and new themes added: Wombat, Desert, Zenburn (all courtesy of Vim :))
• NEW: Code completion improvements: lists python builtins, lists snippets of the current language.
• NEW: New editor options to control the highlighting behaviours.
• FIXED: Major fixes to following areas: text collapsing, searching, searching in files, structure panel and editor performance.
• CHANGE: The debug/execute behaviour slightly changed: If you don't have a task assigned the IDE will always try to debug/execute the current module.
• CHANGE: You might find your previous IDE settings resetted. This is due to some big internal changes. If this becomes an issue; the old IDE settings are kept in "<appdata>/pfaide/v1.0 Alpha/settings/"

Alpha Release 100107..

Amongst many fixes for bugs and inconsistencies the biggest changes are:

• Fixed: There was a sluggish feeling while typing fast. Now gone.
• New: Tracebacks from Python output are now highlighted and clickable.
• New: Projects filter some files and folders by default (.hg, .git, .svn, *.pyc,..).
• New: Fullscreen mode. Press F11. (Editing performance may suffer for now.)
• Debugger is removed! Current debugger only supported CPython 2.6 and was reported to be problematic. So I retract it. If you're happy with it please do not upgrade to this version and wait for a couple of weeks for the new debugger (which will support more than only 2.6).
