Problems on Windows, which is Windows 7 running under Parallels 9 on MacOS 10.10:
It looks like there is an extraneous single byte (hex 32) appended to the image of a program, which prevents a program from using all 32K of storage.
When looking at the memory map produced by compilation, the very last line has no address shown if that line is less than 16 bytes.
The virtual terminal always seems to come up at 115200 baud, changes don't get saved. The port's settings in the Device Manager are 9600, but they don't seem relevant. The port is a virtual comm port created by the FTDI drivers.
Despite the rumors of optimizations, programs compiled with this seem to be a few longs larger than when compiled with the original Parallax Propeller Tool.
Problems on Mac:
Did a normal install. The editor seems to work ok. Clicking on the hammer icon brings up some window labeled "build status", but doesn't seem to invoke a compiler; obvious syntax errors aren't reported; the window closes silently after perhaps 1 second. The run, write and memory map icons are greyed out.
