Castalia's block highlighting doesn't treat blocks nice if the indentation doesn't follow the standard alignments. Very annoying for us that have different habits. It could have worked if it didn't insist on starting at the position of the begin/try, but rather on the first non whitespace at the line that contains the begin or try. #XE8

TrendMicro is reporting LicenseManager.exe in  #XE8  Trial as a Malware. I'm pretty sure it's false positive, but i wonder what's inside LicenseManager.exe that makes TrendMicro think it's a malware.
