Options

Tab width (in spaces) Tabs in your input will be turned into this many spaces (maximum of 20)	File already stored on server
Highlight inbuilt keywords, data types etc If this option is chosen, keywords, inbuilt functions and data types etc. will be highlighted. Disable this for more speed, but less highlighting.

Notes

Maximum file upload size is 2 megabytes
Your source will be stored for 7 days, then deleted. I don't look at or use any source uploaded, but if you want to be paranoid that's your tough luck ;)
Selecting "Language Default" results in the default colour for a language being chosen. Good for natural looking highlighting, but no doubt you want to play anyway ;)
Yes, comments can be case sensitive. In particular, in basic the word "REM" is a comment, and also comments are used to highlight metacommands/import statements in languages such as Java
