[Dev-C++] Newbie question on issue / bug reporting

[Steve H. <st...@sj...>]

Hi,

I'm a newbie Dev-Cpp user although I have been coding in C++ for several 
years.

I'm very pleased with Dev-Cpp. However I've found a couple of minor 
features / bugs (see below). How do I report these?

Kind Regards,

Steve

Issue 1 - Library Locations
==================
When including libraries it is necessary to provide a full path. Even 
when the libraries are in the default location. For example system 
libraries in C:\Dev-Cpp\lib. Furthermore when browsing for the directory 
using the "Add Library of Object" button the library is added using a 
relative path. This has the following unfortunate consequences:-
The project will fail to build if the location of the project file 
changes with respect to the install directories (e.g. moving a complete 
project will break the build).
The file name passed to the linker becomes much larger (e.g. 
../../../../../../Dev-Cpp/lib/libuuid.a). This might cause problems on 
large projects.

Issue 2 - Dual Monitor and / or large monitor issue
==================================
I have installed Dev-Cpp on an Acer laptop with dual monitor support. 
The second (plugged in) monitor is running at a resolution of 1280 X 
1024. When I try to maximise Dev-Cpp on the second monitor it only uses 
the top 75% of the monitor. I have not experienced this issue with any 
other programs.
