A few of us are trying to resolve the SynWrite crashes.
Intent is NOT to turn off the LEX but to stop the crashes with a proper root cause analysis to find the issue and resolve.
**So, can anyone provide a use case(s) where a crash IS 100% repeatable? We need the source, the event described as a series of steps or keyboard actions (a video will do also).
**
This is not a thread to discuss .... I had this happen... or, it happens often... or, a general dicsussion re SynWrite We need repeatable crash so we can analyse.
Cheers
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I may have the answer! it took me a while but I could get a reproducable result of the crash. The event was like this.
1. Enter Str(
2. Enter ) and then the Helper appeared.
3. The enter/return key stopped working (other documents loaded where still ok).
4. Try to correct Str()... crash.
So, one change may have resolved. Change the parameter to 0 in the Customise - Editor - AutoComplete - 'search for words only in the first ... Mb of file.
I have received reports that s changing the parameter to 0 in the Customise - Editor - AutoComplete - 'search for words only in the first ... Mb of file. Does resolve the crash issue.
I will set the default for the next release to Zero (0).

Works here... does it work for you?
