However, now that it seems that some users of trunk can use it successfully, while you see instability means I do at least want to observe that I saw the same sort of problems you see.</div><div><br></div><div>My usage was a Saturday spent prototyping non critical (and very newbie) code. I resolved not to touch the IDE again until the current work package was concluded. (My production use of CCL is all via the command line).</div><div><br></div><div>I assumed all IDE users experienced the same problems, and that my lack of experience would reduce the value of bug reports, given that more experienced people would also find these. If that is not the case, I am inclined to find some time to play a little more in my setup and see if I can create reproducible bugs, rather than simply a long winded 'me too' posting on this list.</div><div><br></div><div>J</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On 19 May 2009, at 22:53, Ron Garret wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><br><div><div>On May 19, 2009, at 2:40 PM, Ron Garret wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><br><div><div>On May 19, 2009, at 2:16 PM, Raffael Cavallaro wrote:</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: -1; ">I don't see any of this.
