DWED first alpha (Announce)

1. It runs fine here.
2. I'm also not a native English speaker, but I found typos. A very common is "hightlight". It should be "highlight". You could fix this easily by a global search & replace. If you need some help for other typos, I'm glad to assist you.
3. Current color scheme doesn't look well on my screen. Please make colors adjustable. Save setting to EXE or config file.
4. Running DWED on Windows XP sometimes leaves "p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p" in the editing window after returning from help function. Pressing F1 followed by ESC removes the Ps from the screen.
5. I don't like the highlighting of language keywords in comment blocks. See, e.g., file DWEDHNDL.PAS.
6. DWED says "#5: File access denied", when I try to open a file with the read-only attribute set. You could fall back to a view-only mode by setting FileMode := 0; before calling Reset.
