Thank You all for the programming-hints and for the link.
Now I have some work to do to test it out

Hello everyone,

In my programs, I'm currently trying to work only with the PB window routines (no sequences with an open console...).

I see the editor gadget for entering text.
But what do you do to enter a floating-point number (Float...) in a window?

Is there anything possible with the Editor ...

Thanks mk-soft for Your reply,

I work with Linux Mint 22 and Xfce4 as desktop

Thanks for Your respons.

I have 3 compiler options:
- Linux
- Console
- shared.so

I did a test with "Linux" in place of the 'normal used' "console" option.
But I get it not working.
And strange, in the early begin I was testing Purebasic, all console examples (and some of my own little tests ...

Hello,

After my first installation, programs with "open console" and others with "debug" worked perfectly.
But last weeks I do not get any output window.

Up to now, I get the following with the old well-functioning programs with "console" as compiler:
- No error message when compiling"
- No error ...

For Notepad Next I found a "NotepadNext.ini" file:
/home/rudy/.var/app/com.github.dail8859.NotepadNext/config/NotepadNext/NotepadNext.ini

2e Edit:
Finaly I have installed Kate (=KWrite) the Linux KDE editor.
There you can set an option to "Purebasic", to recognice the pb syntax....
And You have a ...

I installed Notepad Next in Linux (Notepadqq does not work on Linux).
But at this moment You can not use it p.e. to compile.
There is already an option in the preferences to select for "Purebasic".
Works well, and you can also use the settings of the other languages ​​for the PB listing.
I have been ...

@Paul: Did already a test with PB example "printer", works good!
Also a good basefile to experiment and to work out, in my own listings.

@Azjio: Thanks I'm going to try out Your software / tips to do the job.
(Notepad++ looks as "luxe" )

Thanks Paul,
But its an exe-file and does not work in Linux. I even tryed it to lance via wine.
Now I'm searching a second editor to do the job, tested already with Geany and Notapad++ but got it not working.
I did also a test, copy my .pb file to .bas file and than open it in Geany, but I need to ...

I think the PB IDE is a fantastic programming environment, but I think it's poor for a super modern IDE that we have not printing options to a printer.
Those who want to print in colors install another IDE that makes this possible, a utility to print in colors anyway, or they are forced to print it ...

Hello,
As a new PB user I have a large number of old basic programs of which I convert several to Purebasic.

I caught myself that I needed a lot of time again and again to convert the old basic syntax with tab(x), printusing "#####...." etc... to Purebasic.
Especially a multi-dim. array to print ...

Found myself the solution:
In the PB compiler-options:
For one example against another it is necessary to check or uncheck the "use compiler"...

Wow, nicely programmed, congratulations!

I have set the compiler option as You described.
All files are in one map.
But after F5 I obtain following error message:

Compilation in progress...
The required compiler cannot be found:
Purebasic 6.12 LTS - C Backend (Linux - x64)

Second time I'm sorry,
this afternoon I didn't have time to test your program. (Groceries, partner stays home late..., cooking instead of programming...).

Thanks for your tip (Preferences PB IDE...), I changed them.

I'm very curious about the result of what you programmed, and hope to be able to ...

Looks interessting...
Did a test on Linux but got: t750.so not found.
Does it not work on Linux?

Correction:
I'm sorry I did not saw Your downloadlinks.
This afternoon I'm going to test Your routines.
