Re: [xmoto-dev] Xmoto on mingw

Hey,

these are good news!
Before you release xmoto-edit, could you please have a look at some 
minor issues?
	Xmoto-edit should no more overwrite settings manually added to the .lvl 
file, due to new version stuff, that came with xmoto-0.2.5.
(In fact if things like level border texture could be assigned using 
xmoto-edit, it would be fantastic.)
	The snapping always tends to make a clean selection impossible, 
sometimes its nearly impossible to choose a vertice that is very near to 
another (even if snapping=off), so you have to click around and hope to 
get it.
	Edge snapping should be improved so that its possible to get "snapped 
out" vertices back to the grid. ("Snapping out" occurs when you  make 
selections smooth by F10 for example)
Also Ctrl for snapping helps little, because its not a defined grid 
point where the vertice snapped to then.
	A simple "back" command, if you pressed the wrong key would sometimes 
prevent frustrating experience.
	When creating blocks, that have a vertice to vertice distance from less 
then 1 grid edge, the snapping sometimes graps and makes a triangle 
where a rectangle was intended.
	A list for selection of edge effects or sprites (similar to the texture 
one) would be a great improvement for effective editing.

These are the things I covered out lately, if at least some of them can 
be fixed, it could help arising good new levels by the people out there.
