Jumping on the bandwagon...

My top non-bugs (but annoyances) with GPS - overall excellent of course - are:

- "Select on Match" option in the Find/Replace box (checked by default it seems). When you want to find the next occurrence by pressing the Return key, it erases the selected text instead. It took me a while discovering it was not a GPS bug but a matter of unchecking that option...

- No easy way for indent / unindent a selection with a single key or some ctrl-key

- The little delay between the keypress for compiling or building, and the actual invocation of gcc. AdaGIDE seems significantly quicker for that. Of course gcc is slow in its turn, but it is another topic...

One point seems a lot better with GPS, 2016 vintage: the display of the text in the editor looks a lot more stable, doesn't swim a couple of pixels away when adding a comment, for instance.

Something else: is there a "find next" key ?
