"Old man" IDE has lived to be tenth, to which event this update is dedicated. Alongside with ordinary bugfixes and small improvements there is one small toy included in this version - gadget for Windows7/Vista. IDE Gadget is small program for monitoring one selected server, functioning jointly with IDE. It is installed automatically when enabled first time, but the gadget itself needs to be activated manually with standard procedure. There are simple ways to access gadgets, for example keyboard shortcut (Windows logo key+G) or just move mouse pointer to the bottom right corner of the screen.


The easiest way to setup gadget is to select server on Servers tab and press 'G'. Small toolbar at the top of the gadget allows to look at detailed server info, refresh server or launch game. Gadget background color corresponds to the current server ping. More detailed information is in IDE help.
