 # Windows console version now sends stream output to stderr by default.
 # Added Control-A support in windows version commandline input box (select all).
 # Changed windows version render window keypress code to hand focus to main window for any key, not just escape.

 # Windows editor tab/indent settings are no longer per-file+global default; changing one affects all files.
 # Added display of filename when hovering over an editor tab.
 # Added right-click menu to editor tabs allowing opening of folder in explorer and copy of filename to clipboard.
