I think RHIDE 1.4.7 have a version of my editor that uses just TEXT. The last version uses OEM_TEXT but isn't yet available.

BC IDE and TurboVision applications have a heap for history strings my editor saves the available entries, so it could be one or more, the limit depends on how many histories the user is using globally. As the editor saves more than one history it ensures the history size doesn't get huge (making the desktop file huge and eating too much memory). > > That's all for now. > > With such a long list of wishes, I think you should join the RHIDE > development team. Seriously. :-)), Eli is right. If at least one of 10 that posts these long lists joined to the team ...
