Rev 2.7 Editor & stability problems

[Mark Smith]

FYI, not that it'll be much consolation, but Constellation does this,  
too. It does the same thing when you try to insert a line immediately  
after a handlers header:

on doSomething
   beep
end doSomething

then place the cursor at the end of 'on doSomething', hit return and  
you have

on doSomething

end doSomething
   beep
end doSomething

Even less consolation will be the fact that neither of these things  
happen in the Rev script editor on mac OS X.

Don't let me put you off Constellation, though. It's so good in so  
many other ways.

Best,

Mark

However, the Rev script editor doesn't on mac OS X...
