The thunk to .Net is finally working:
So it’s now possible to call static functions that take value types as argument and/or as return type. In this example, I am calling the standard System.IO.File.Copy function to copy a file on my disk. Exceptions are also supported, as you can see from the first line, when I [...]
There’s a lot more going on here besides the context sensitive interpretation of ‘blue’ (near the end). But I think that’s the most impressive.

Both the mindmap and code editors now support all the mouse functions: horizontal/vertical scrolling and zooming. Oh, and I’ve also cleaned up the AICI code a [...]
The new code editor is beginning to work:
The new release is finally ready. The Aici demo took a bit longer than planned. Also, lots of things have been fixed and updated. Here’s a non exhaustive list:
There’s a complete new lockmanager running in the background. This is much more secure (thread-wise, that is) and a lot faster. It’s still a bit of [...]
I sort of blew out all the cylinders while attempting a first run directly from numbers to the English grammar: memory usage went up to +1.5 gig, thread count was +800 and a gazillion temporary neurons had been created before it all came to a grinding halt. Some redesign was required. So I beefed up [...]
It was itching to much, I had to do a new release. Lots of things have been updated behind the scene, so not much visually new to report (except for the debugger perhaps, that’s definitely visual). As I mentioned in a previous post, I was expecting some serious coding requirements to get the scanner-parser routines [...]
