Hi BJ (and all), Sorry about that, my mistake. I took out a few source files which I had thought were unnecessary, but turns out they are still needed in the binary. I posted an updated version at the same URL: http://www.eclass.net/Downloads/eclass_parquesoft.zip As before, just double-click on "editor.exe" to begin!
