Update.
Changes - Version 5.0.0.8 - 20 November 2011
- Remapped all language IDs so that much more translations will fit nicely in the tables.
- Profiling can now also be properly used without a project.
- The function scanner now ignores comments.
- Added an option to change the UI font.
- Rescaled portions of the statusbar to accomodate other fonts.
- Again updated big parts of the local variable scanner.
- Removed 'Backspace Unindents' and 'Keep trailing spaces'. These options were too buggy and/or useless.
- Set the mouseover delay to 1500 by default now.
- Dev-C++ now does not stall when GCC complains about incorrect filenames. Instead, it shows GCC's error in the formatted log.
- Added a few more previously hardcoded text items to the translations.
- Fixed a few out of bounds errors in code scanning code.
- Updated the Chinese (TW) translations thanks to 'cin.getline'.
- Updated the CVS page.
Important notices
- The options format has changed. If you want to reuse an old pre-4.9.9.3 config file (NOT recommended), or, more importantly, when you're overriding Compiler Options in your project, you need to re-set these project settings once and save the project. You'll then have an updated 4.9.9.3+ project file.
- This version has GCC built-in instead of being an aditional package. It also contains D3D9/10/11, GDI, Win32 and OpenGL headers and libraries in that flavor.
- This version is now fully portable. If you also don't want Dev to leave anything behind in the registry, please select "Portable" or "Minimal" in the setup options.
- For ultimate portable programming, please launch devcppPortable.exe located in the main folder of the portable zip download. This will make dev save its configuration files in the same folder as the executable.

Changes - Version 5.0.0.7 - 9 November 2011
- The compiler log output now always outputs the raw text even when no errors have been found in the code.
- The parameters now default to nothing (let MinGW decide) instead of ISO C99.
- The find output saver now correctly outputs its items.
- Added a few more fixes to the tools menu.
- New untitled files now get saved properly.
- The { autocompletion now only inserts an extra newline when building function parameters and can also detect structs, and will append }; for them.
- The code hint will now auto-hide after 10 seconds instead of 2,5.
- Added a new autosave function.
- Added some preparation code for TDM MinGW64.
- The function tooltip now does not stay on the screen when leaving a function.
- Added a build date to About.
- And some more stuff I forgot about.

Comments
The spam filter on blogspot has decided to flag quite a few comments from me and others as spam and moved them to a place where I'd never look: the spam/junk box. That spam box doesn't tell you there's something in it at all, nor is it visible on the main page. I opened it today, and found quite a bunch of perfectly normal posts in there. All your non-spam comments have been moved to where they belong now.

Update.
Changes - Version 5.0.0.6 - 3 November 2011
- Fixed an nil pointer read crash in the append closing brace code.
- Updated the comment/uncomment functions.
- The variable scanner now also supports local variables in non-class functions.
- The scanner now does not scan the same word twice (making it 2x faster).
- The Environment Options window now does not crash when its not allowed to edit file associations.
- One can now use Ctrl+Scroll to edit text size, just like in browsers. Also added information about it in the Options menu.
- Files now open up much faster thanks to avoiding repaints.
- Fixed a buffer overflow in the tooltip generator and rewritten the locals scanner, which is now 50% faster.
- The append closing braces function now works on every keyboard Win32 supports.
- Removed any reference to DevTabs, which were too flaky edits (for example, the ComCtrl Manifest caused it to not paint child windows) of TPageControl and TTabControl.
- Fixed a bug in the code that checks for the existence of tools.
- Added new Chinese_TC translations created by cin.getline.
- The uninstaller now does not forget to delete Dev's help file and folder if it's empty.
