  3. Calling the IntelliSense (Ctrl+Space) from the last empty line of the code editor crashes the IDE.
    • FIXED for SB 1.3
  4. Turtle crashes Small Basic when moving turtle with key strokes. Import and run CKJ872 (move turtle until crash). Looks like 300-400 keystrokes will crash it (not a timed issue; definitely crashes on key strokes).
