This dialog allows you to change the editor behavior settings.

- Automatically save [Untitled] as temp.hla:
When on No Project mode, this allows you to compile a program without saving it first. The program is saved in the HIDE\temp folder with the name temp.hla, the executable after a build will be in that folder as well.
-Send Console output to Output Window
Redirects standard out of console programs executed to the output window. Note: this does not allow input.
-Open Last Project
Attempts to open the last project worked on.
-Backups
IInstructs HIDE to make backups of every project file modified, up to the number specified. Once the limit is reached, the backups cycle back through the lower numbers. The files are saved either in the BAK folder of your project (if one was created during project creation), or in the HIDE\temp folder.
The backup naming convention is thus: [n]<filename> where n is the backup number
If Backups is set to 0, no backups will be created.
