Can't edit files in version 1.0

Development Tools IDE 1.x
1

Can not edit new or existing files.

If I try to paste text into file I get the follow error:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.InternalError: Text component read only
{left rest of the error out}

Seen another post but there was no followup.

Help.

Where is the sketch directory located?

Operating system?

History: have been using IDE for about 2 weeks. Everything worked fine.
Yesterday it stopped allowing me to create or edit files.
Operating system: Windows 7 Ultimate.
IDE directory "C:\Arduino"
Sketch directory: "Documents\Arduino"

Thx for the help.

Sketch directory: "Documents\Arduino"

Is that what is displayed in File / Preferences / Sketchbook location? Or is there an actual harddrive folder displayed?

Hmmm. That is a /terrible/ way to tell you that you have selected an external editor. This is a UI bug, AFAIAC.
