Innit, sorry, pretty sure i've danced this dance before as well :-\
I need my desktop background to be some text saying "have you tried
re-installing gambas first? :)

Sure, I've fixed the file duplicates so all should be good now.

It's coolest feature is the keystroke macro recorder,  recording keystroke
events and play them back. (spent ages on that and it's still far from
perfect)
(it's not great with QT if using F3 to search text in a macro, gtk will do
the search at the time F3 is pressed in the macro but QT only does the
search at the end of all the macro keystrokes , so only works if you make
your macro so Search is the last keystroke)

Really wish Gambas had a keystroke recorder, such a useful thing (i just
had to make one)

I also emulated Pluma's External tools plugin as that's also a really
useful feature.
Wishing well
