Syntax Higlighting Bug

[ocean21]

In Version 8,
If you are fast in typing, Syntax Higlighting is not working.
To test it:
1. Preferences->Editor->Syntax Higlighting
Set Enabled=TRUE
Set Keyword Case=Uppercase
2. Open an Empty Sql Window.
3. Write "for rec_ in" in lower case in a normal typing speed.
editor will chance it to "FOR rec_ IN".
3. If you write the same clause fast,
editor will not trigger syntax higlihting and text will remain as is you type it("for rec_ in").

In version 7, Syntax Higlighting was working properly.

Please also refer to the post Bug: when using keyword case uppercase, the editor can be too slow to keep up with the user's speed

At least I know, why am I unable to use it
This code editor has many drawbacks, compared to the editor of the ver6.

Am I the only one having this problem?

I don't think, that you are the only one.
Sometimes I had a strange problem with copy-paste, maybe I was too fast, when I selected some rows of source code with Shift+Down Arrow, and pressed Ctrl+Insert, and tried to paste it somewhere with Shift+Insert, nothing happened. But, for the second try, it did it.
Using Ctrl+Insert and Shift+Insert is more comfortable for me, than Ctrl+C, V
