Honestly I don't know how I came to argue about Windows 7. Maybe because someone here in the board still uses it. Weird. I was quite sure you wrote something about Windows 7 here. Well, anyway. Sorry about that.

Your opinion about Linux is funny though. Depending on the distribution you chose there ...

For security considerations, it's never advisable to use outdated software. It's already quite challenging to keep ahead of malware, viruses, and other bad players, but without regular patches and updates, it's simply risky to use unsupported software.


Hooey! Regurgitated scare verbiage ...

It's very hard to follow your posts because the English is very broken and some word combinations don't even make sense to me.

What do you mean with terminal? Are you browsing through the web in a terminal, in a command line interface?
And what do you mean with these woman that somehow pop up? And ...

The best way I can think of is to write a private message to Fred or use the support mail address.

Confirmed on Ubuntu Linux.

Without optimization it is 1512 milliseconds.

So don't forget to enable optimizations in the compiler options.

C Optimizer removed the loop.

Exactly

You have to enable the compiler optimizations in the compiler options. And of course for that you have to use the C backend and not the ASM backend. The ASM backend has no future anyway in my opinion.

If you change the content of any gadget it usually generates multiple new window events that have to be handled by the event loop. And when you change the gadget in each loop it will continue to create more events that you are able to handle which results in visible issues.

So better only call your ...

In such cases always start replacing the longest patterns first.

I like the game :D

Procedure.s MyGetExtensionPart(path.s)
pos = FindString(path,".")
extn = Len(path)-pos
ProcedureReturn Right(path,extn)
EndProcedure

Debug MyGetExtensionPart("c:\test\file.john doe")


It's not that easy. Try paths with multiple dots. :D
Also you could even simplify ...

Here are my ideas. I don't like the ReplaceString method.
Procedure.s MyGetExtensionPart1(path.s)
path = GetFilePart(path)
If Not FindString(path, "."):
ProcedureReturn ""
EndIf
ProcedureReturn ReverseString(StringField(ReverseString(path), 1, "."))
EndProcedure
Procedure.s MyGetExtensionPart2 ...

Thanks, Fred. Let's wait a few days until Google is up-to-date again now.

Both. When you allocate memory using ReAllocateMemory() it will exists until you use FreeMemory(). Nothing else will free it again. But if you lost the corresponding pointer it will result in a memory leak because will never be able to free it again without knowing the pointer.

And I just found one ...
