Is there an easy way with PB to flash the text of a TextGadget (or for any other gadget with text)?

for example;


If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 270, 160, "flash text?", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
TextGadget(0, 10, 10, 250, 20, "want to flash this text")

Good suggestions all, thanks folks.

After checking out each on I ended up using the regex method.

If I have this, for example, in a text file


The dog and the cat ran
The cat and the bird
The dog and the bird ran
The mouse and the cat ran
The dog and the mouse


What is the best way to remove any lines (the complete line) in the text file that contain the keyword dog without having to resort ...

@ Josh & ebs

Did not even think about Maps. It works fine though, however, I ended up going with the array after all. When I expand this thing later i'll probably move to Maps instead. Thanks for your excellent suggestions and replies :)

Yeah, I sort of miss an 'InArray ...

anyway, I have a For - Next loop that makes six passes and digs out strings from something else for a total of six strings but I want to make sure that a string is only put in the array once and there are no duplicates in the array. So, how do I place strings into an array yet ensure a duplicate of ...

@blueb,

sorry 'bout that, got left out of the copy-n-paste to the post - the GetValidateIPAddress() procedure is:

Ok, located the issue, kind of. I uninstalled Purebasic then re-installed it and issue is gone.

that's what I mean I guess, mine doesn't do that. When I compile the app the icon never shows up as the icon for the application. It will show as the icon for the app if the icon file is in the same folder as the compiled app but once the icon file is removed the app shows no icon. This is not ...

that doesn't work like I want. It doesn't become part of the application, if the icon file is removed or moved the application no longer has an icon representing it.

I know in the compiler options there is a 'use icon' thing but this does not use the icon unless the icon to be used is in the same folder as the application. So how do I encode the icon into the application so the application has an icon without having to put the icon in the same folder?
