Don't forget SQLite date functions are available to you:

A related tip:

Tabulator wants the record data in this format:

[
{id:1, name:"Oli Bob", age:"12", col:"red", dob:""},
{id:2, name:"Mary May", age:"1", col:"blue", dob:"14/05/1982"},
{id:3, name:"Christine Lobowski", age:"42", col:"green", dob:"22/05/1982"},
{id:4, name:"Brendon Philips", age ...

It can do, you can't load ES6 modules via the file:// protocol so you have to be careful which version of the Tabulator files you use.

May be it works for a console hello world, but is there more complex apps (with GUI) for this ?

It seems much more capable than just hello world, there's a list of binaries compiled with it here which includes Python, PHP, SQLite3, ...

As for GUIs I think somebody got SDL working but I think ...

This seems interesting:

" Cosmopolitan Libc makes C a build-anywhere run-anywhere language, like Java, except it doesn't need an interpreter or virtual machine. Instead, it reconfigures stock GCC and Clang to output a POSIX-approved polyglot format that runs natively on Linux + Mac + Windows ...

The path / file may not exist (yet), it's a string coming in from a script and I'm trying to perform a sanity check to make sure it could reasonably be interpreted as a path for the current OS.

Ah, so it only checks the file name bit
I was using it to check a whole path string

PB 6.20 on MX Linux (Debian)

This returns zero: I can't currently check other platforms...

@Fred
Are you taking up the invite?

Quin: Is there any chance of SpiderBasic/PureBasic ever compiling to WebAssembly?

No, I don’t think so.

@Fred
May I ask why? Emscripten is designed to be a drop in replacement for gcc that compiles C to WebAssembly...


A high level view of the Emscripten toolchain is given below [see link ...

Thank you both

I actually thought I had tried reversing RGB but I'd obviously slipped up doing it because that is working now

So probably libxlsxwriter using BGR not RGB

I don't think so as the declaration of cyan in libxlsxwriter's format.h header file is:

LXW_COLOR_CYAN = 0x00FFFF


Which matches cyan in HTML : #00FFFF

I have tried using PB's RGB() directly, also poking to the first 3 bytes, poking to the last 3 ...
