Thank you, it downloaded fine
Does anyone know how to disable the "fancy new font" and to use a the original IDE's one?
Thanks

In the preferences, use "System" and antialias = false
But why?
Have down loaded but get error message "Application has not initialized correctly(0xc0000005) Click OK to stop application"
What can I do??

Can you run the official arduino? where that error appears? in the setup?
Think there would be a way to invert colors? Editor background = #000000?
Edit - Nevermind, i have discovered theme.txt.
Veryyy niiiicee! Sexy black theme to go with all the new features.
Rather than using the truly ancient toolchains in WinAVR & Crosspack, you may be interested in using MHV AVR Tools instead, which is a multiplatform up to date AVR toolchain (GCC 4.7.2 & AVR LibC 1.8.0).

For the latest version, Win32, Linux x86 & x64 are available now, MacOSX is still cooking.
interesting alister
I think there are many different tool chains
but the idea of this was I think to package up and update what we already use,
which I for one think this guy dies fantastical,
he should be on the Arduino team me thinks,

No I can not run the official also.

Then you should ask in the general forum. I can't found anything related with your error in google. The only hints I got are related with XP activation

I estetically prefer the old one, the new one has also problem with the accents
updated today! enjoy!
Fixed some stuff I never noticed but I saw in the forums:
-
Undo/redo: now move the caret to the correct position
-
Scrolling with the mouse is nearly impossible to control in the official IDE (just try to select 2 pages on a 4 pages code with the mouse), now there is delays (with some 'acceleration')

I`m not liking the font either, sorry.
Not in the preferences GUI, you have to edit preferences.txt?
These are in the supplied prefs file.
editor.font=Monospaced,plain,12
editor.antialias=false
Ah, you have to change the idesettings txt file.
Yes, it is another file to avoid messing with the other settings.
What's wrong with the "modern" font? too smooth? heheh
Thanks for the quick update.
Now, just add some code folding like code blocks does...

I think code folding is not possible... without MAJOR overhouling and/or massive donations $)
Hehe ok.
KickStarter Project?

I don't quite undestand the utility of the folding code blocks anyway. I prefer just intellisense. I mean, it makes sense for me in Visual Studio in the designer section for example, or some pinvoke definitions, but in arduino? just make couple of tabs, one with the setup, other with the loop.
I will think about intellisense first if one day I want to start to make major changes in the IDE.

I prefer intellisense to code folding to. I use intellisense on a daily basis and I only activated code folding in C++ last week. But it are 2 different things and sometimes folding is handy. For instance to get a better understanding of a function that has grown to large and needs refactoring. This example can not be worked around with multiple tabs as you propose.
For me; a professional IDE should support both. I say professional IDE because there are very good reasons of existing for non-professional IDE's. I believe that the Arduino IDE is a great example of non-professional IDE with great value.
In many discussion about bugs and new features in the Arduino area the discussion is about "Can we add this added value without adding (to much) complexity for the user?". These are very valid discussion for the Arduino IDE that explicitly does not position itself as a professional IDE. In a professional IDE the discussions should be "How to best add this added value"
begin of rant
I do not advice everyone to use a professional IDE. You should use a tool that fits your need. My advice is to start with the Arduino IDE "as is". When you start to feel the limitations; look at the alternatives. If you have no professional software development background and do not wish to go there: use the arduino IDE with mods or go to an external editor.
If you have a professional software development background or wish to go there: go for a professional IDE that has good support for the arduino environment.
End of rant
From a practical point of view:I have never implemented code folding nor intellisense. I think however that folding was available before intellisense so my guess would be that folding is easier to implement than intellisense.

PS Note that in eclipse you also have the outline view which resembles the code in folded format which takes away quite a bit of the added value of code folding. (I guess visual studio has something similar)
