I love SpiderBasic!
Newline issue:
Default files are saved with only $0A as newline char by default, no way to change. Don't like that.
Example:
spiderbasic.js
SpiderBasic_Compilation0.html
(after a successfull compile/run situation)
They should be generated based on settings in Spiderbasic/Compiler/Defaults/Sourcefile Newline format setting IMO.
If Linux=$0D, if Windows=$0D$0A
Editing those Linux formatted files with standard windows notepad is horrible
Improvement Inline help:
Reference/images/ide_menu_compile.png
Shows old purebasic graphics with that nice "Create Executable" for instance..

Re: Newline issue (missed bug?) + Minor doc error
The linux style endind is intentional, because most of the webservers will be on linux. On Windows you can find better than notepad to edit a file, right ?

Re: [Done] Newline issue (missed bug?) + Minor doc error
Yeah, NotePad++ on Windows are super great. Standard Notepad for windows are lame
But, isn't it a bit bold to state a fact that "most webservers runs on Linux", just like that and use that as a intentional unchangeable fact within SpiderBasic, when its clearly released for Windows, as well as MAC and Linux? In my world, if I run Windows, everything is Windows and I'm sure there are others on the other side "if I run Linux to code, I shall use Linux for webserver" as well...
In my opinion, there should be an checkmark in the compiler section that allow to change newline into Windows, Linux or MAC for the Spiderbasic JS files and more....just like the "File/File Format" in the regular SpiderBasic IDE menu for the source has? The function is already there, its just a matter to use the same function during compilation.
Of course, one can create own tools before or after compilation (ehem, just like I did), to fix it...

Makes sens, I will move that to feature and request.
