Bruce STEERS reported a new bug.

Summary
-------

Argument list aditional quoting happening

Type             : Bug
Priority         : Low
Gambas version   : 3.15
Product          : Development Environment


Description
-----------

I don't know if this is supposed to happen like this but i thought it worth a mention because it's odd and a bit annoying :)

If i was to add and argument in the project properties in the IDE for testing my app i get odd quoting issues.

Say if i set an arg for example...
text="This is my\n2 line text"  

then press the + button it adds the text as i typed it to the arguments list.

If i close the Argument editor and open it again it gets turned into this...
"text=\"This is my\\n2 line text\""

Not sure if it is supposed to do that but for my GForm app that has tons of args it's getting a bit messy.

Many thanks
Bruce
