PureBasic Forums - English

Hi dobro
I've been wondering the same thing? It' been a long time. I hope he is alright. He certainly has contributed a lot of
useful tools for the forum users over the years. Enough so that this section of the forum was set up just for his tools
and jaPBe IDE etc. I use his PureFORM Designer ...

29.3 Sweetspot.
Under development.
I'm currently working on a new project called 'Sweetspot'. It's still very much a secret :-)

That clock is SO COOL , you should market it :!: :!: :!:

The previous picture with all the clocks gave me an excellent idea though.
Sometimes it's necessary to keep a reference to a different time zone, businesswise, etc. Could you include a menu item to set the hour.
For example. I ...

Thank you very much Traumatic !

That will really help others speed up programs
that need to use that code alot like I do.

Hi Technicorn,
:oops: :oops: You use a 10 million in the test of Mid() and 1 million in the FMid2() test,
beside that, I posted the code with the already uncommented Mid() macro,
so both tests used FMid2()
I guess I need to be more 'awake' next time I cut and paste stuff. I totaly thought I pasted ...

Hi Technicorn,

I am running on an AMD Athlon XP 1600+ CPU, with 512k memory. I use a MSI KT266A motherboard with a
Radeon 7500 video card. I changed both occurances of !calingjmp 4 to !calignjmp 8, and ran the program several times.
The speed and output always averaged 10 times faster. Did you ...

I was really impressed with the speed gain with the FMid2 (Mid replacement) program. I found it consistently 10 time faster
then when using Mid. I was wondering with the expertise out there, if any one ever thought about, or think it's possible to improve the
FindString(String$, StringToFind ...

WOW, it is impressive.
Using Technicorn's code in a .pbi file:

! macro EndMacro {}

; Assembler macro to align code on a given boundary,
; aligning loop starts on 8 byte boundaries can speed up the code
; by about 1.5 to 2 times!

! macro calignjmp value
! {
! local dest
!
! if ((value - 1 ...

Hey Trond
In your code above in reference to the line:
!PUSH dword [_PB_StringBasePosition]

When I try to compile and run it, I always get

PureBasic.asm[389]:
MPO
PureBasic.asm [124] MPO [21]
PUSH dword [_PB_StringBasePosition]
error: undefined symbol.

Anybody have the same problem or an idea of ...

Life can be mean and hard sometimes. I'm very sorry to hear about the bad news you've had to endure about your friend. I hope things will get back to normal again for you soon.

I'm curious. Could anybody give me an idea why it works that way, or is it a bug :?:
As mentioned in my the last message. The thing I couldn't solve was when using the buttons that move all three slides. Only the top number (red) would update during the moving. The lower green and blue numbers ...

Regarding the Delay(400) comment earlier. There is something else that I just thought of that could be a factor. And that is your system mouse settings. Some like to change their system mouse settings button response time to faster or slower. I don't with XP, but I use to with win98. That would have ...

The Delay(400) was added so you could single click the arrow buttons one number at a time for fine tuning . eg: starting at 56, 57, 57, 59 with three > clicks.
If you hold the left mouse button down, it goes to default and bypasses the Delay(400) and speeds right up.
With out the Delay(400 ...

That's what the Ext Color Button is for. Just left click ...

PB 4.0 comes with a nice tool named Color Picker, which works with the IDE.
But I sometimes needed a small program that I could be able to use as a
stand alone with out the IDE . I also needed a program in which I could
choose external colors. I found ColorsHexer by CSprengel : Date: 20. June ...
