Thanks for changing it. I don't really like GIF web sites and the general randomness of their content, but something like https://i.gifer.com/17YK.gif might work well. (8-bit, chunky, with motion).
But the image you've changed to is already "very cool".

As always, a nice example. But it would be better if the example image here could be a bit more "safe for work".

Why don't you do it like a man , just for a change [...] MrSwiss, we've had a complaint about your posts in this thread, in particular the one quoted here. If you don't like the Windows dependency of the code, that's fine, but the derogatory and unconstructive comments are not welcome, and you've b...

Can you explain what this code does?

Without a full testbed, the analysis of your problem is difficult. However, it is pretty clear that this part is very slow: For j = lbx to ubx-1 clips = clips + Str(Z(i,j)) + Chr(9) next j Allocate one long line, then copy the 512 tiny strings into that line and trim it as needed. P.S.: I gave it a...

Once a project gets this sort of size, and you want to make the source public, it would generally be a good idea to store it in an online repository (e.g. Bitbucket, GitHub or GitLab), which have lots of advantages to pasting into a forum: - the code can be shared, and a link provided to the forum, ...

I see now, just a documentation shortcoming.
The simplest solution is probably just to use ScreenRes, as suggested.

Thanks for the suggestions! I've ported the example Microsoft code: ' https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/winsock/complete-server-code #define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN #include "win/winsock2.bi" #include "win/ws2tcpip.bi" const DEFAULT_BUFLEN = 512 const DEFAULT_PORT = &q...

So far, it seems like this is a problem with Windows refusing to make the window as small as the graphics area. Are you saying that on 32-bit it stretches the graphics to fill the window, while on 64-bit it is not stretched, but the remaining area is basically filled with nothing useful? I've tested...

I have no idea how to view Github #113 - sorry. It's at https://github.com/freebasic/fbc/issues/113. Hmm, we have bbcode for bugs on SourceForge, but not for Github. Maybe that's worth adding.. Anyway, I don't think the above bug is related. The fixes should only affect the resulting image in the s...

How hard would it be to have an FB program that listens on a TCP port, and returns some status information to the client computer? Basically, doing something like the Check_MK Agent that listens on port 6556, and non-interactively dumps a text-based stream of information out to it when something con...

The RND stuff is for my program Vari_Cph... I needed to generate a 64 bit random binary string... But it only generated upper values ,mostly "1's" I guess the problem you're having is that Rnd can't generate 64 bits of randomness in each number. It should be able to manage up to 53 bits p...

It sounds like maybe you've taken the ffi.h.in file, and renamed it? That file has to pass through the configure/make process to fill in some of the variables, in order to become a valid header file that works with your target. If you've got a working build environment, then you should be able to cd...

Try this code: const N = 1e12 const q0 = 0, q1 = N/4, q2 = N/2, q3 = N*3/4, q4 = N dim as integer r1, r2, r3, r4 for i as integer = 1 to 10e6 select case int(rnd * N) case q0 to q1: r1 += 1 case q1 to q2: r2 += 1 case q2 to q3: r3 += 1 case q3 to q4: r4 += 1 end select next i print using "Numbe...

You might view https://stackoverflow.com/a/36094799/446106 as a recommendation to use the C Runtime's _exit() to end a program from within a thread: #include "crt/stdlib.bi" ... _exit(1) But like FB's End() , it won't cleanly exit scopes or clean up variables. Allocated mem...
