PureBasic Forums - English

Thank you, Kenmo. Selenized Black & Dark are themes I can appreciate!

It would be nice as Irrlicht since that engine is cross-platform.

It's normal for forums to impose a limitation on the frequency a user can submit a search. I assume this would prevent bots and automated scripts from querying excessively.

AZJIO: On MacOS, PureBasic and SpiderBasic do not use CHM files for help, so I made these regular HTML files. I don't know how often the help gets updated but these are also based on PureBasic 6.02 Beta 2, and SpiderBasic 2.50 Beta 1.

I've created these packages for PureBasic and SpiderBasic.

That's true for most themes/styles on the forum, even on desktop.

Thank you STARGÅTE, I had overlooked that upper limit from the docs.
Do you happen to know when it is appropriate to use #PB_Any? Docs show it in use for windows and the menu itself. I'm sure I will figure out over time where it works and doesn't, either way.

Example 1 - Fails
menu_button_about = MenuItem(#PB_Any, "&About" + Chr(9) + "Shortcut")
Later in the code...
Case menu_button_about
MessageRequester("About " + #Program_Title,
"About Text", #PB_MessageRequester_Info)

Fails to display the MessageRequester, which I'm thinking is due to it ...

I don't have any folder. I have a folder name in Russian. Many will have problems.

Simple solution is just change "Desktop" to the Russian equivalent, yeah?

These instructions only streamline the process of extracting PureBasic and creating a functional desktop shortcut. You will still want to install the other necessary packages using apt-get. Tested on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS 64-bit.

Creating Apps folder in current user's home directory.
mkdir ~/Apps ...
