The Editor's functionality will depend on the type of file being edited. 

  • As a Source Code Editor it will highlight the text reflecting the syntax of the code, support code folding and bookmarks.  The colour, style and background colour of each highlighting element can be adjusted to suit preferences by selecting the Highlighter tab under Tools, Options.  When used as a source editor additional tabs will appear at the bottom if the source file in the main program file, i.e. its file extension is .bas.  
  • As a Text Editor none of the above features will be available and the editor will revert to a simple text editor similar to Note pad.
