I wanted a GUI alternative to Windows' ipconfig, and "simple" because I only need IP + mask + gateway infos.

I'll add a dialog box, and it'll be fine.

Thanks much.

Hello, Resurrecting a very old thread. I'd like to write a simple GUI alternative to ipconfig. After adding "Dim i as uinteger", the code above does compile on Windows, but crashes when run. Is there a simple way to get the IP + mask + gateway of all Ethernet adapters on the local host (&q...

Thank you.

I notice even the installer doesn't update Windows' PATH, so it won't find fbc.exe, and the include + libraries. Thus, after unzipping FreeBASIC-x.7z in eg. c:\FreeBasic\, append the following to Windows' PATH: C:\FreeBasic;C:\FreeBasic\inc;C:\FreeBasic\lib\win32 Third-party libraries (.a, .dll) mus...

Thanks. Looks like all it takes is copying the .dll and .a files into Freebasic's \lib\win32\, and including either regex.bi (PCRE, PCRE2) or tre.bi (TRE). Which regex engine do you recommend? -- Edit "The program can't start because tre.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the p...

Thanks much.

The EXE succesfully installed the whole thing.

I'm still using 32-bit Windows, so no need/use for 64-bit stuff.

I'll check out https://www.geany.org/.

Hello, The wiki doesn't have a top-level page on using regular expressions, but there are a couple of threads in the forum archives. Am I correct in understanding that 1) Freebasic has include files for two regex engines (\examples\regex\: PCRE and TRE), and 2) the source of the libraries must be do...

Hello, I have two issues: 1. I'm confused about what file I should download to write and compile a Freebasic file: FreeBASIC-1.09.0-win32.7z 2022-01-01 19.0 MB 6 fbc-1.09.0-win32.7z 2022-01-01 3.2 MB 1 winlibs-gcc-9.3.0 2022-01-01 438 win32-mingworg 2022-01-01 2 2. When unzipping FreeBASIC-1.09.0-wi...

Worked fine. Thank you.

This is a newbie question.

I'd like to remove the { and } characters from the output:
The reason is that I'd like to use the code above to generate unique filenames.

Is there a simple way to do this in Freebasic?

Thank you.

Thanks for the tips.

Hello For someone running a basic static web site, I need a simple tool to 1) read a bunch of HTML pages, 2) extract the contents of the <title> tag in each file, and 3) build an index file with hyperlinks to each HTML file, ready to be copy-pasted into the home page. I checked the wiki before askin...

Hello I need to write a utility that, if need be, will translate e-mails into ISO 8859-1, aka Latin1. E-mails can be written with different charsets, including UTF8, those used in Unix, Macintosh, etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_8859-1 I was wondering if Freebasic has a library that can ta...

I'm on my way. Thanks.

Thanks for the info.

I'll read up and experiment.

Edit : is there a document that sums up how to convert C source into Freebasic, including data types and pitfalls?
