Infomation:

In this version of BqEd I looked specifically at handling undo and redo. I did have time to add a few other features though.

Changelog:

Changed tile type icons to coloured versions to match tile type images displayed within the map.
When closing the main frame with a dirty map, it will now ask if you would like to save it. Clicking on cancel will veto the close operation.
Fixed bug which would remove dirty status when you select 'New' and then 'No'.
Levels can now be dirtied.
Added foreground and background image icons. These are toggled when the user selects the 'Paint Background Tile' tool, or 'Paint Foreground Tile' tool.
Level screen shot rendering is now fixed and will no longer render incorrectly zoomed images, nor show editor specific images/icons.
Fixed potential memory leak when the editor fails to unload the current level. This is caught when the editor closes down now.
Added undo and redo for most of the current actions available to the user.
Added undo and redo accelerator keys.
When the frame closes, it will check if the map is dirty, and if so it will ask if the user wishes to save the map.
Tileset palette window can now open a preview window for the current tile set.
Added undo and redo toolbar buttons.
