I'll try to do it, but as I said, it doesn't happen every day (thanks god
again!). Maybe I would have to wait untill it happen for month or more
even without described action.
Since it's the new one, here's some data about it just in case if MW is
interested to investigate this problem:
hardware: P233, 64MB RAM
OS: Win95 OSR2
CW: R5+2 patches
code: cca. 12000 lines of source in now more than 10 files, 5 segments +
multiple form resources
I'm not sure why did it happen to me only. Maybe it's so rare because most
of projects are not that large. I have some source files opened in editor
(IDE), editing one of them and when I press F7 (compile) I notice that one
or more opened but not edited files are trashed by non ascii chars in a
way as if you fired a shotgun into a sheet of printed paper (some chars
are smashed, some not). The worst thing is that trashed source is saved
before compilation (I know I can disable it but I like that feature in
general having a lot of edited files).
