Version 13.00 is now released

Changes from Release Candidate #3:

• Fixed compiler problem initializing array of compatible integer type, but not exact character type, from string literal.
• Fixed compiler problem with intrinsic function ending up as a call to a runtime function, and the intrinsic function was used in a small leaf function not otherwise requiring an aligned stack, and the runtime function did (conditionally) more calls on the unaligned stack causing and exception (at least with Windows API functions).
• Fixed compiler problem with __declspec(selectany) sometimes placing the immediately following data object(s) in the same (wrong) section. May pass unnoticed, but could trigger an exception if a read/write object was placed in a read-only section (and later written to). Ugh.
• Fixed assembler problem with first optional argument to INSTR directive, and @InStr() macro, not being accepted unless it starts with an integer constant (now identifiers are also allowed).
• Added IDE syntax coloring of false and true C keywords (no language mode for this, but the C23 spelling of bool was already done so...)

Woot! Thanks pelle, downloading and testing!

Hi Pelle,

Great news, thanks.

I installed version 13 today. Previously had version 11.
The graphics are nicer in 13 and everything works well.

A minor bug, however, is that the tabs at the bottom (Project, Search in files, Results, etc.) are not visible. If you drag the cursor over the field, the tabs expand. Had the same problem in v11 but not in previous versions.

Thanks to Pelle again.

And you just waited for release version

Many many thanks from a mostly silent but grateful user!

Don't really understand.
I downloaded v11 when I was programming a couple of years ago. Then I stopped programming until recently. Now that I saw that there is a v13 I downloaded it. Don't know if it is final or an ongoing improvement version.

Great Pelle!
Thanks!

He's saying that you shouldn't have waited until the final release version to report it, but from the sounds of it you're a casual user and I don't think we should expect all casual users to report everything.
Sure, in a perfect world it would've been nice to have it fixed in one of the RCs, but such is life. No software is perfect.

To Quin, Vortex, TimoVJL, John Z, Akko, AlexN, nub...
Thank you very much!

To alderman2:
First I've heard of such a tab problem. Which Windows version are you using? Any other information you can think of that may help understand it...?

Having performed several tests, I can confirm that this bug has been fixed! Well done, Pelle!
