If the setting "Save Settings to" is set to anything other than "The end of the source file", no settings should be created in this case too if they are non-source files.PB help: The PureBasic IDE => Working with files wrote:The IDE allows the editing of non-sourcecode text files. In this "plain text" mode, code-related features such as coloring, case correction, auto complete are disabled. When saving plain text files, the IDE will not append its settings to the end of the file, even if this is configured for code files in the Preferences.
Examples:
- When I open the file "File.pb.cfg" with the PB-IDE, a file named "File.pb.cfg.cfg" is created.
- When I open the file "Readme.txt" with the PB-IDE, a file named "Readme.txt.cfg" is created.
