hi
I'm just starting to use the system (version 8.02 for Windows) with MinGW because the C-free envirnment I used has problems with VISTA
I installed it on my HP laptop Probook 4310s with XP as a first step
The problem experiment is simple but basic for C programming
The editor is not accepting characters like { and } :cry:
On my laptop with italian keyboard I use the combination Alt+nnn for typing the not listed characters
Becouse the separate numeric keyboard I have to do Fn+Alt+nnn
THis features is ok with all computers and programs I experimented
But the editor of the system is not accepting (at least) the two combination for { and } that are Alt+123 and 125
I experimented all the other combinations and noticed that (very strange) the even numbers are working while the odd numbers are not.
For instance Alt+122 is 'z' and Alt-124 is '|' but there is not 123 and 125 combinations.
I verified that in output a program with various printf for numerical values in the range are working.
At the moment the only possibility is to use a shortcut for (for instance) struct and then delete the keyword struct and leave the 2 brackets
But this is a workaround and not a solution
Is anyone experimenting the same problem? I would like to test the system in order to use it for my teaching activity
thanks.

1. Turn off all the C::B Plugins but the Compiler and see if problem goes away.
(If it does turn them on one at a time; to see which one causes problem.)
2. Upgrade to recent nightly build to see if problem goes away
