Hi.

Related to this topic: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... 18&t=45885
It would be really nice to have an option in the settings for disabling the automatic scan for procedures/variables/macros/ ... and so on.
Because slowly it really becomes pain to work width the IDE.

If we have disabled this function, a additional button in the toolbar would be nice for manual reload.

oh god, my English is not the best. sorry for that.

Thanx, Morty

Or perhaps would it be possible to rescan this in the background? Ie. after a file has been loaded and displayed, couldn't the editor then go through the source and scan it? That way one could start editing etc. without having to wait. Another option would be to save a 'keywords / autocomplete' list with the source, so rescanning is not necessary but simply reloading would work. (Unless the IDE is smart enough to handle malformed / inconsistent edits that would require a CRC or something similar though...)
