BasicEd is an editor for fb files. It is written entirely in fb. It supports basic winapi auto complete. Function listing.projects and some examples of listbox customizing.msdn via google support. Win32 api intergrated help. Fully configurable interface. Multi doc support. Advance edit cyrl usage indents Etc. Im releasing the source and exe as public domain and invite u all to rip code from it as u wish. I still use it for viewing bas files and hope u find it useful.thx for fb. Bob

Hello!

For me, I hate that kind of website.

Has your editor something common with Basic Editor ?

Sry but it contains at least a dozen files. Posting each file would be ridiculous. Suggest an alternative and ill reup it. :)

And no written from scratch. I did not reference any thing except msdn.

With sites like DropBox or Google Drive (not to mention all the code project hosts), I'm surprised any file sharing sites think they can get away with getting people to jump through such hoops..

Sounds like an interesting project. I think you should go for Public Domain rather than abandonware though - abandonware isn't a license of any kind.

One can easily download the file from that provider; however, I would prefer some other host too. Files uploaded on such sites usually get lost very quickly.

//Edit: I didn't get first, that clicking on the filename works. Only saw the download button that wants you to download some Download Manager Application.

I don't really see any advantage compared to Fbedit, did I miss something?

Did you use an version of RAEdit that shipped with RadAsm / FbEdit or did you additionally make some modifications to it?

Thank You for sharing!

All you need to do is click on the basiced.rar
It says Download: BasicED.rar. That's a direct link to the file.

I downloaded the files--no problem.
Does the fb.exe have to be on path?
Does it have to be in a certain folder?
I just keep my freebasic folders/files on the desktop (Win XP)
I can't get a build with the editor.

Hi guys sry maybe i should explain a few things.
First BasicEd was a toy project for to get used to using fb and winapi. It was coded in radasm2 and is strongly influenced from that ide. Its only major issues i intend to fix is a lot of 'trial' code is lying about in it and all paths are absolute as i have not yet ported my c++ code to convert paths to relative so whoops. My bad. Its kinda hardwired to my c:/radasm path in its ini.
sorry.Ill fix.

My main reason for posting it is it different to ketilos fbide cos everything is written (deliberatly) not referencing his code. I wanted to write my own editor but i like his style.So for example the menus are vista type rather than 'owner-drawn' but look similar.

Any who ..
Ill do an update for to fix the path issues and clean the code up. Eta 1-2 weeks.
I owe u guys that much. I had alot of fun with fb but i 'have' to code in bleeep! msvc for work and its hard maintaining a library in 2 langs.

Btw fbide/radasm should still be your default choice for ide.
This is not better just different and some of the code might be useful.
bob.
