I assume this means either: 1) Everyone knows what .s# and .j# do, so it's such a stupid question it doesn't bear comment, or ... 2) Nobody knows what .j# or...
... It is not a stupid question, but most likely everyone else finds it an uninteresting question. Actually, the source is available and if somebody really...
... honestly, i don't have a clue. BUT: i think this is something like the good old Goto. .s# LABEL you can create a label, and with .j# LABEL, you can jump to...
... uninteresting question. Well, we don't know how interesting it is until we know what it is! To me, if I want to learn a programming language, I want to...
Hi: I have found the following in the source for XIT.X but I don't think it works, but I am no expert. I also don't know what jump is supposed to do from the...
I try to download xbasic but could not let download the softwear. Could you please help me to aplace for downloadin xbasic or basic. Thank you for your help ...
Hi again: When you start Xbasic, the Intermediate Window Shows ".c enter dot commands here". If you click on the down pointing black triangle to the right of...
... I can help you on that. .rj evidently used to be in the debug menu, and it's still explained there in the docs, albeit only with one line. To wit: Jump...
Hi Hugh, ... Clearly this is not a complete list. So not sure what we can deduce from this. Every command from the drop down menus is available via dot...
... Exactly. The dot commands do not automatically mirror the menus, when we decided to add Run > Erase output we just didn't think about adding a dot command...
Hi Steve, Hey, here's an idea -- why not just leave out the dots!? If the idea is to save time by avoiding moving your hand to the mouse, then let's save some...
One thing you can take to the bank -- Max R. wanted a Functions menu, but wound up calling it View, for obvious reasons. Euphoria turned open source while my...
Hi, This is both an XB and a DOS-command question. I call Ghostscript from an XB program using the SHELL() intrinsic (on Windows XP). Ghostscript accepts...
Not with SHELL, no. Windows does have a set up for inter-process communication, but it isn't a standard feature in XB. You'd need to import parts of the...
Hi essinias06, I am new to XBasic, but I am using xblite for 2 years now. I did use the SHELL operator as follows. (Please note that I insert a space as a...
Hi Steve, Hi Guy, Thanks for your answers. Steve confirmed me that the SHELL() can call a program with parameters but not keep control over the opened program...
I would like to use the XstGetFilesAndAttributes() function to detect temporary files that are older than a few hours and then delete them using the...
Well how about something like this: XstGetFilesAndAttributes (#SourceFiles$[x], 255, @files$[], @FileInfo[]) High$ = HEX$(FileInfo[z].createTimeHigh) ...
Hi All, As always I appreciate your time and expertise, and as almost always I spent at least a half hour on each of these trying to find the answer by ...
Hi Vic, Thanks very much for your time. I got both of them to work now. 1) I never would have thought of leaving out the = sign. I think I did try adding the...
... I love that British spelling of programme. I'm a big Sherlock Holmes fan. I was wondering if you (or anybody) could point me to a brief explanation of...
This has no more to see with the initial XB question, but just for those interested in Ghostscript... A Ghostscript user show me the way to send Postscript...
Vincent, Steve, Thank you. Vincent mentioned XstFileTimeToDateAndTime(). Thanks. No doubt that I'm going to use this function to keep trace of what is done by...
