Finally it seems that the selecting text bugs within wxSTC (the wxPython scintilla wrapper) has been solved.
Soon we will have a new mac version, also including the latest variables panel addition.
Thanks to the wxPython crew

Tere Tulemast!
Version 1.0.7.3 comes with a fresh new panel addition.
The Variables Panel which shows you a complete list of all the declared variables in your actionscript files.
The panel shows line number/variable’s name and variable’s type (if declared), everything ordered by line number and grouped by variables’ scope.
The introduction of this new panel has been discussed for a while in the SEPY mailing list. Not everyone was agree about its benefits (the be honest me too), but since it was not hard to implement I decided to put it in this new version and listen what developers think about it after have tried for a while…

How to use

From the upper combo box select the file you want to inspect (only actionscript files will be parsed) and then press on the refresh button on the right. Remember that this panel wont be updated automatically once you modify the file, but you always need to press on the refresh button.
A full list of variables will be displayed (the darker line represent the variable’s scope, i.e. the function to which variable belongs to). Every row shows: line number, variables’ name and varables’ type
Double click on a list row will point the cursor to corresponding line.

Suggestion about this panel improvements are always welcome!
