Update: 19 Mar 2013
        
        The latest addition to my "bag-of-apps" is finally ready.
        
        MapBasic Windows Extended [ aka MBWinEX ]
        
        Here's the low down:

        
          does not clutter up the window with everything MapInfo does [stays clean]

          ENTER Key actually does an new line

          allows better control of what to run [current line, selected lines, entire page]
          including system global hotkeys [MBWinEX does not need to be the active window]

          handles VBScript for more robust processing [4th run method and hotkeys]

          key/value for constant and variable definitions and values for both VBS and MBW

          automatically provides DIM/UNDIM in the key/value tables to the compiled code
          scans your code for DIM and adds them to the compiled code as needed including UNDIM
          dim statements in your MBW code are tracked and automatically issue UNDIM at the end of Page Run [Run All]

          Live "help context" using Shft+Right-Click or the View Menu and will insert the first item with Ctrl+Space or clicking an item

          syntax highlighting with user modifications [current to MB v6.0 may be missing later information -- that is all I have to work with]

          Bracket matching for ending ( [ { using CTRL+> OR matching open for ) ] } using CTRL+< by placing cursor either in front or behind
          Nesting may have issues in complex nests and may find the first one

          use GOTO in Selection and Page modes. example:
          
              FETCH First FROM MyTable
          Loop:
              IF MyTable.Col1 <> SomeValue THEN goto GetNext
              UPDATE MyTable SET Col = NewValue
          GetNext:
              FETCH Next FROM MyTable
              IF EOT(MyTable) THEN goto Done
              goto Loop
          Done:
              ShowMsg("DONE.....")
          Now you can actually walk down your data with FETCH Next FROM Table.

          Inspect(variable) works from MBWinEX to show a variable value and pause the program until you press OK - debugging tool.
          ShowMsg("text") pauses the program and displays a message.
          These are recommended instead of NOTE and PRINT as they may stay hidden from view until switching back to MapInfo.

          
          
          Did I forget to mention -- IT IS FREE ! [just unzip and make a shortcut to the exe]
          
  Current version [Help > About] is 2013.03.26.1930
  
          So what are you waiting for [download zip file].......Go and Grab MBWinEX
          
          You can also just take a look at the manual [
