- ShowLineNumbersSeparator will separate the line numbers panel from the main text are with CHR$(179);

Default cursor height for non-insert mode is LOCATE , , , 8, 8. Start and End values can now be customized in the config.txt settings file (values range from 0 to 31).
When a a single-line selection is made, every instance of the same "word" on the current screen gets highlighted. Can be disabled in Options->IDE colors.
When the cursor is on a an open "(" or closing ")" bracket, the matching pair, to the left or right, will be highlighted (as seen in modern IDEs, like https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/zainnab/2010/09/07/automatic-delimiter-highlighting/)
Also:
- Overall visual adjustments.
- Improved IDE Colors dialog (Options menu), which includes an option to disable bracket highlighting.
- Adds Ctrl+S as a shortcut for File->Save.
- Displays an * on the filename in the title bar below the menu bar when the source has been edited.
- Fixes an old bug that would color strings incorrectly when the source view was scrolled to the right.
- Enables block indent functionality in the Edit menu even when autoindent is on.
- Allows the View SUBs dialog (F2) to be invoked while focus is on the quick search bar.
(Windows only for now)
When active, this new setting will instruct the compiler to save the .EXE in the same folder as the source file. If the current program is not yet saved, the .EXE is placed in the same folder as QB64.EXE, as usual.
Also:
- When "Make EXE only (F11)" is used, the status area will show "Location: " and a link to the folder where the .EXE was saved. Clicking it launches Windows Explorer.
Default behavior (which mimics Qbasic) is to keep the cursor in place even after pasting from the clipboard. This new option alters such behavior to act as modern systems, placing the cursor after the pasted content.
Also:
- Add visual indication that mouse buttons have been swapped (Options menu);
- Allows opening menus with a right-click (in case you forget you swapped mouse buttons);
- Minor tweaks to Code layout dialog box.
