Re: More WOLips questions: HTML formatting, memory leaks?

Once again, the help was _fast_ and _really helpful_!

Yes, you're right, the code is not crippled - it's just needs getting  
used to because I've never seen a tool which formats its code like  
this. But the preference settings you've pointed me to of course did  
solve the problem. Thanks!

"Debug mode" = Launching the app with the "Debug" button in Eclipse?  
No, so far I always lunched it with the "Run" button. I set the RAM in  
the "Run" dialog under the WOApplication's VM arguments.


Thanks for the help!
