Decimal BASIC Questions, suggestions and information

In Decimal BASIC Ver.7.1, Compatibility-Syntax options are saved in the registry or BASIC.ini.
When BASIC has been installed with the installer, options are saved in the registry, otherwise in BASIC.ini.
BASIC.ini is made in the folder where BASIC was launched.

I know the options are saved in the Registry (with the installer, or setup.bat as admin) otherwise in the INI file.  But either way, the Syntax option is not saved, and reverts to Standard after you close and open the application.  The same happens with the Minimal Syntax option.  Does that meant the only Syntax option that stays permanently is the Standard ?

I'm using Decimal BASIC 8.1.3.4 on Windows 11. Search and replace don't work very well. Sometimes replace misses many occurrences and only works from the cursor down to the end when Replace All is used. Replace All should replace every occurrence in the file. A few times when I tried to use replace, Decimal BASIC hung and I had to exit it and restart it. I need to use this version rather than the 7.x version because the following works in this version:



DO
  SET COLOR MIX(0) 0,0,0
  CLEAR
LOOP
In the other Windows version, the screen flashes. In this version, it stays black as expected. Of course the example is greatly simplified just to illustrate the problem.

This Program reads the matrix a(3,2), but in an editor we have the result (with an editor):

1,1,2
2,3,3

why?

Program
100 DIM a(3,2)
110 DATA 1,1
120 DATA 2,2
130 DATA 3,3
140 MAT READ a
150 MAT PRINT a;
160 OPEN #1: NAME "data.csv",RECTYPE csv
170 ERASE #1
180 MAT WRITE #1: a
190 END

Is it possible to run decimal basic twice?
Yes:
It is possible to have more than one DecimalBasic running at the same time. We can compare two programs.

Ver. 8.1 and Ver. 0.9: bug on the Replace dialog.
When a second word is searched in the Replace dialog unless closing the dialog, Decimal BASIC shall freeze.
Countermeasure versions are in preparation.
for a while, close the Replace dialog after every one word searched.
