You may find here something useful: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5561236/win32-splitter-control The big example by the Chinese guy fails already in lines 1+2 (#include "Win32test2.h") with error messages, and it's a whopping 416 lines long. I've posted a working example here , but ...

You obviously haven't tried that yet

I assume you follow the parallel thread in Masm32?

Actually labels and GOTO are used quite often (at least in C) to perform cleanup at the end of a function, and to do this is in a manner that is consistent and clean. If you have a function that has multiple exit points, GOTO cleanup is an indispensable tool if you've manually allocated objects tha...

Same for me.

Suggestion: "Unread posts" is hidden in the 3-lines menu. Could it become a separate button, like "New posts"?

With Windows, just use chcp 65001

It works with RichMasm, but I have no idea about other editors.

On Linux you have to use unicode characters. Have a look at this table . Nice table, very useful! Re "unicode characters": In practice, this means you need either a UTF-16 or a UTF-8 encoding. The Internet uses UTF-8. Be prepared for a mess, and for some reading. I won't write it up for y...

The other day I posted this here : Can somebody explain in a few words what a stack walker does, and what we can expect from it, in terms of simplifying the debugging of an application? It turned out that it was actually not a big deal to write a StackWalker macro in Assembly (sorry, I know this is ...

false positives are not due to code generated, more due to system calls you do and DLLs you link against. Check this on VirusTotal . The source: #include once "windows.bi" function remotefile(url as string, filePath as string) as HRESULT '0 = success dim hLib as integer, ret as HRESULT di...

Congrats, Paul, for your attitude. I wish all software developers were so positive about feedback...!

I reinstalled WinFBE and tried to compile C:\FreeBasic\examples\win32\GDIPlus\circle.bas First, a message that the compiler paths were not set. So I found Options/Environment Options/Compiler Setup and inserted C:\WinFBE_Suite\WinFBE32.exe I press F5, and it hangs. After a while, being a little bit ...

5. I use bookmarks a lot. Me too. My first word processor, programmed around 1990 in GfaBasic plus Assembly, had bookmarks. Years after that, I wrote a VBA bookmark macro for M$ Word. Below is what I currently use (for inspiration, Paul - I'm not selling my editor): - select some text, e.g. #define...
