[ANN] Intelli-Dolphin 1.1 - yet more fun for Christmas

Tim M
I couldn't resist it - there were a few more things that were still
holding back my productivity in the wonderful D6 environment, however
they turned out to be easy* to implement.

So here's another bulge in your Christmas stocking - Intelli-Dolphin
1.1.

Intelli-Dophin - perhaps noble in title, but the idea is to introduce
more useful keyboard based timesaving functions to Dolphin.

Version 1.1 now adds:

- Intelli-Tab
After using auto-complete to select a mutli keyword method, entering
each of the keyword parameters requires extra keyboard or mouse usage.
This extension allows the tab key to easily jump to the next compiler
error or incomplete code block (unless you are at the beginning of a
line, next to a tab, or have a muliple selection).

You can see this as a flash demo of this feature at:

- Define All Temps
Building on auto-corect define temporary, this extension allows you to
correct all undefined temps in one go.

- Improved Auto-Correct
It will allow correction not only if the cursor is before an item, but
also at the end, or when it is selected

- Ctrl-Enter Define Temp
When your cursor is at the end of an undefined item (i.e. you have just
entered it) - pressing Ctrl-Enter will automatically define it for you

- Keyboard Fwd/Back History
While Alt-Left/Right change your current tab to the next one in
sequence, if you are running Unit Tests, or using the Method Explorer,
the last tab is often not sequentially to the left or right.
Alt-Up/Down will mave you backwords (or forwards) in the recorded
navigation history.

Features from 1.0 still include:
 - Copy Class from a menu
 - Copy line with Ctrl-C
 - Auto comment a line or selection
 - Intelligently auto bracket a keyword, statement or selection
 - Flip/Run your current unit test or package with a single keystroke
 - Autoselect the first test error and display it in the status line
