Jan 1 MILESTONE: First HotBasic program produced on W32, converted to Linux ELF format with PE2ELF.exe (written in HotBasic, of course), and run successfully...
Well done Jim, I'am just downloading knoppix linux, it can run from a cd-rom. I takes a time (773 MB). It's the first time I try Linux :) Will let you know if...
I'am sorry but I dont' get the redim defbyte Flags=4 dim ObjectPropNew(1,Flags) as string*32 I want to do a redim ObjectPropNew(1,x) without losing the Flags ...
... Yes you can. using an array template named "dummy". see code: '-- code begin -- $apptype console $symboltable off declare sub mysub dim f as file defint...
... Yes, it is time to take a second look at the demo program in the REDIM announcement post. Time to look at which subscript was changed (the right-most)....
Thanks Don for your time. if MaxObjects would be e.g. 100 ObjectPropNew (Maxobjects,40) and then do a redim to say 50 less, I see no advantage of a redim. You...
... Sorry, my previous reply was sort of wrong -- now corrected, and sort of cryptic -- now corrected below: I think you want: dim ObjectPropNew(Flags,1) as...
... Here is what I use at Debian "command prompt" after logon as "root": mount -o defaults /dev/fd0 /floppy /floppy/hotlinux0 where "hotlinux0" is the name of...
I searched for some linux basics :-) http://www.math.mcgill.ca/services/linux_basics.php Now I can run hothello0, however when I run it I get the following ...
... Cor, actually, redim lesser still keep your data in the array. just in mulit-dimension array, the order of the data is that way in HB; 1,1:2,1:3,1.. ans so...
... Don't follow your logic, Cor. Why redim down if you want the data? As a technical point, any redim that reduces the size of an array, does not reallocate...
... That's what I thought. Well, you would not reduce array size *below* that of data you wanted to save. Be sure to reduce the right-most subscript which...
Jim, hotform.txt states: "Most .OnClick events arise from WM_COMMAND (uMsg = &H111) messages. nCode is the "notify code" -- the HIWORD of wParam." Is nCode...
... I would think not. Some .OnClick events have no notification codes, and as such, nCode should be 0. In essence, if an object has many notification codes,...
HotBasic 1.64 and 3.6e include various improvements and extend error checking for assembler reserved keywords to labels, GOSUB and GOTO statements and Declared...
... I went one better (or 5 better really). The code below lets you get all five of the non-client area fonts for use in your programs. This works on win98,...
... hmmm. Before PE2ELF was "correct", I also got that message. Think that different Linux installations may have different defaults re the mount command I...
Cor, Is Tahoma the font you're using for everything on your system? If so, then the code is working. The code fills in the dimensioned fonts with all...
Jim, The pc I use as a router ran hothello just fine. It runs an older kernel version (2.0.40 if I remember correctly) on a very scaled-down (crippled?)...
It depends on which theme you have selected on WIN XP I changed the theme and then I get different results. But did not get find out to change these fonts on...
This is also a setting on Windows XP Control Panel Display Appearance Effects uncheck -> Show Windows while dragging No screen flickering while resize form cor...
... On Windows 2000, I got the following: Microsof Microsof Microsof Microsof Microsof I checked and all of the fonts should be Microsoft Sans Serif Tom ...
... Thank you Larry, for this feedback and your innovative code posts such as system font reckoning. The demo of hothello now posted is packaged in a 2-segment...
... Thanks, Tom and Cor, for checking out the code. Tom, I don't know why the font name is truncated... seems odd - shouldn't it show the whole name? The code...
Too cool, Jim! ... This is impetus for me to get another workstation system up and running with a Linux desktop. I've been putting it off but now it's time to...
