Probably I will add an option, where you can toggle
that behaviour on/off.

This is a know bug and is already fixed for coming
versions.

Since this is related to the editor, and SET said,
that he fixed it, I think this will be fixed in coming
versions.
>6. Save search line in project. (or, to desktop file)
This was somhow lost in the last version and I fixed
it now.

RHIDE is designed to be used normally as the only program
to modify the files it needs for the project. For the reasons of
spead I cache many information about the files. But if you change
them outside RHIDE without exiting RHIDE, RHIDE does not know
about the changes. There is an option in RHIDE to turn this caching
off, but this will probably slow down the make process. Try it out.

Normally you don't need to save any options when using
a project, since all your options are saved in the project
or desktop file automatically. The menu "Options/Save options"
is there only, to be used when not using a project so the user
can save all customizations and later loading them. And since
also the options saved in the same format as a normal project,
RHIDE asks to give the name of a project file.

This might be possible to implement, but there are many
problems. The old BC 3.1 used only one object format where
it knows, what the code and what the data is. RHIDE runs at
first on DJGPP where the COFF object-file format is used
and it runs also on Linux where ELF is used. For now I can't
see any easy way to get the information from the object file.
(BTW: Even on DJGPP the COFF files might have more sections
than .text .data and .bss like it is the case for my own system, where
I have also a .const and a .rodata section)
>Will you fix all these bugs ??
If possible.
