Today I finished the code for the editor preferences dialog.
I can now duplicate all the editor preference functionality that exist in the current IDE.
However, all settings are stored in the INI file instead of the registry.

Larry,

Can you tell me how a 64-bit program works?

If you compile on a 32-bit OS, like XP, will it work OK on both 32- and 64-bit systems?

Or is it the other way round: You compile on a 64-bit system, and then it will work
on either systems?

Just curious...

I really haven't looked into it.

LarryS is taking care of the compiler portion while I'm working on the IDE.

He has sent me a new iwbparse.exe, elink.exe, and nasmw.exe to test.
I'm using them to compile the new IDE as I work on it.  I've also recompiled all my retail offerings to make sure they compile without problem.  So far, I have not encountered any problems.

Outherwise, we'll have to wait on LarryS to provide user's with the narrative on all the aspcts of the 64bit compiler.
