New features

Well, there is a short overview of new features that will be available in the next release:

• basic block typing
  
• commenting/uncommenting text blocks with hotkey
  
• 'Go to matching brace' and 'Select to matching brace' actons
  
• configuration of syntax highlighting associations
  
• setting the default font and background color in settings dialog
  
• setting the current line's color in syntax scheme
  
• combo-boxes (instead of line edits) in find/replace dialog (with history)
  
• option 'Whole words only' in find/replace dialog
  
• option 'Case sensitive' for auto-completion
  

Also several small improvements:

• zoom in/zoom out with ctrl+mouse wheel
  
• having selected text in find/replace dialog (if it was a single line selection)
  
• 'Close tab' button on tab-bar, closing tab with double-click, action 'Close' in tab's context menu
  
• creating a new tab with double-click on tab-bar
  

All these features need to be tested, so you're very welcome with bugreports. Bug tracker is on its old place: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=205470&atid=993768 :)
