What do you think about instead of having:

const
  AmountToMine = 10; //The amount of ore you want to mine.

we could have something similar to code hints where the script creator can put in his own little instructions next to any line in a script. Is it possible?
Something like this:

Right click -> Toggle Book marks.

i dont think bookmarks is what i was talking about. maybe they could be the same as codehints but with a green background or something instead of yellow. or maybe even a Toggle Comments button.

Also the cancel button doesnt work on the update form in simba

Well it looks really fancy, but it's a lot of work to implement and will probably slow down Simba. So I don't think it's really an option. However maybe some kind of "Comment viewer" tool might be handy..

And Cancel button works pretty good here..

Simba doesn't have bookmarks (yet)

I don't think that a green version of the codehints box would slow down simba that much at all. You could just call the function that creates the box and set the background to green. But then again I dont know anything about pascal.

Well the point is that Code hints are not implemented..
And the way code hints work makes this hard to implement ->
A code hint is just a new 'form' which lays uppon the Source-editor and shows the hints. This mean that when you scroll away in the source editor the position of this code-hint will muck up. When you want all the comments to be in Code-hint-alike forms you need to create a form for every comment and manage when they are shown and at which position..

Therefore is a lot of work :p
