I'll raise to 6 (or is it 13 now?)
As Robert says, I don't use colorized scripts in MC. But I do use it
for HTML. I don't recall why I chose not to colorize MC scripts. I
tried it both ways. I think there was a speed issue when I tried it?
Or maybe I thought it would add to memory usage which is a big issue
with me? I don't recall. It's been a long while since I even gave
it thought.
I know that keeping the memory usage as low as possible is a huge
issue with me. That's why I liked the MC IDE over the Revolution
IDE. My projects hog enough RAM, I don't need a competing compiler.
Speed is a biggie, too. If anything with the compiler slows me down,
I ditch it. I like it lean and mean.
Now my fella... he's just the opposite... not lean or mean at all :-)
He's the biggest sweetiePie of all!
Hmm... it is a puzzler why chose not to colorize my scripts. All of
the above is just guessing... the memory, it fails me!
