We could disable the syntax highlighting for you for now if you want.

If I am using the white script editor background window, then it will always crash with certain words. Although, if I start the line or script with // or /*, then it won't crash. It's not even a crash, it just closes instantly.

Which is a crash.

Just throwing this out there, but there seems to be garbage collection issues when there are large amounts (20k?) of TStaticVars.

It seems like it decides to do the GC cycle whenever you click the mouse or move the mouse out of the screen, and the TStaticVars all survive until that cycle, then the CPU is pegged at full load for ages.

Of course, the solution is to manually destroy() the TStaticVar when it is no longer needed, but I feel like there should be nicer GC being done that doesn't choke entirely on what is not a large amount of memory usage.
