Description:
The IDE hangs completely (ie. I get the rainbow circle of death) when I try to enter a comment using '(*'.
Steps to reproduce:
- Place cursor where you want to start comment
- enter the first character of the comment symbol, ie. '('
- The IDE freezes with the rainbow circle of death
The only fix I have found is to force/quite Lazarus.
Additional information:
It happens sometimes (generally in the same location, I have no idea why, obviously).
If I put a comment using '(*' at another location, there is a good chance it will work.
The code has many '(.....)' comment blocks.
