Yeah I found one called TVirtualTree which seems to be very powerful, however, unfortunately I coudn't even install it. Their instructions don't work on my machine, I kept getting compiling errors. May be because I only have BCB 6 standard but I removed all DB entries so it should work.

No problems, sorry if my message sounded rather down. That was not intentionally. I just wanted to share with you what I am going through and let people know (people that might expect me to do evereything) that software development is not easy. I have no intentions of stopping development of SkyIDE. Next for Beta 4 I am gonna have to do some heavy thinking of finding a new way of re-writing and re-implementing the project manager (yet again). The current way just does not work, I thought it might have. I need to be able to add project folders in the project tree but the problem is, the tree view control that comes with BCB is very limitted. I can't even tell TTreeView to make the node bold! So I either have to extend/write my own TTreeView (something which I don't prefer because it's gonna take me too much time) or try to find another tree view component that will let me make nodes bold, have extra/spare string property which I can use etc but I am having trouble finding such a component. So, I will have to work and find a way with what I have at the moment.

I don't know for how long I can keep up with the project. Some of the user requests are pretty tough. I will do all I can to implement requests. The major con with me is the understanding of Windows OS in general. I have no problem with C++. If I know what to look for in Win32APIs I would have no problems but the problem is I don't know what to look for when I need something and have no one to ask so all you see in SkyIDE is done thanks to my own research. It's like re-inventing the wheel.

SkyIDE was originally started for educational purposes after all. Sometimes I have to ask the user twice/three times to make sure I understand the request right otherwise I will get it wrong. I have no intention to fight/compete against projects such as Dev-C++, Relo and others. It's pretty tough for a one man developer to fight against an army of developers.

I hope you all appreciate what you see in SkyIDE as I try my best. I have absolutely no problems open sourcing SkyIDE and I believe in free and open source software however, I have some very personal reason for having SkyIDE closed source.

I would like to thank DonationCoder.com again for all the support has provided me and Borland and other companies for making the contest possible.
