Hi Rene,

I think it is still valid, but you can have a global timer callback this way - with named dialog:


Uses "UI", "Console"


' -- ID numbers of controls
Begin ControlID

Hi,

thanks a lot for your question.

I don't think you do anything wrong - thinBASIC is sadly not 100% ready for unicode. It is quite complex topic and more we dive into it, more we learn, but...

Dear Rene,

very interesting idea, I like the super SELECT CASE! Even without the uniform part.

Brian,

can your user try this script on his PC, will it improve the situation?


dword bufferSize = 1024
dim buffer as asciiz * bufferSize

Hi Rene,

thank you for your ideas, as always. I would also appreciate the ability to open supporting formats, such as INI/XML/JSON... Nice idea with the .RC as well.

I cannot promise quick...

Thanks a lot Eros :drink:

These are very important observations and impressions. It is something to keep in mind for 2021!

I think continuing the opensourcing of the parts is a factor which can help improve this as well.

Dear users,

every project you share, every idea you propose, every bug you report - it means a lot and gives us a lot of energy for the further development.

Of course, as there is a 2-men team...

Exactly the idea I got reading your question :)

I put it on the list and will discuss with Eros :drink:


All the best for 2021!,
Petr

Thank you for sharing the working solution :drink:

Hi François,

I think you could achieve what you need like this:


uses "exe"

String version = EXE_GetVersionString(app_path + APP_Name) ' -- Retrieves the version of thinBasic executable

So cool :) Everyone, have a great holidays and fantastic new year.

We cannot wait to share the next thinBasic version with you, a lot of work done on modules, IDE and help file. Stay tuned in the...

Hi Dany,

1/ the fight with Antivirus software cannot be won once and for all. For example, even my Visual Studio EXE files I compile get immediately caught by many AV solutions. Better to have AV...

Superb, I am really happy :drink:

Hi Phil,

I am glad I could be of help :) I am sure there is a better solution, but I did not do Win32 coding for some time.


I am really happy it works for you!,

Hi Phil,

the position 1000 is in characters, not in lines. So the result is correct - each line is 5 chars - 4 for digits, one for line break. 5 * 200 = 1000.

To go to beginning of line 1000,...

Thank you, will be present in 1.11.7.0.

The function is a wrapper of https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/setconsolescreenbuffersize.

Yet - I understand and we will add this information to the thinBASIC documentation.

Hi Dany,

I see & understand :)

Then these will be at your service:

DIR_GetCurrent
DIR_Change

Hi Dany,

I usually prefer to compose the absolute paths, using APP_ScriptPath to retrieve the directory where the script lives and then work with that further.

For example, if your EXE is...
