would be handy for libraries, especially since we can't implement something like it ourselves. In some simple cases you can use macro wrappers for your public procedures, which either throw an error or call the procedure, but it's not a general solution.

Do you want your own sourcefile/programm receive command line arguments when compiled/run from within the IDE?

The string given here will be passed as the command-line to the program when running it from the IDE. The content ...

For unit testing (including Assert) there is pb_folder/sdk/pureunit/
But maybe Skywalk was talking about suggestions for specific tests that should be integrated into pb(?)

What I quoted was from my local linux help file. If you are on Windows you have to use /P style switches.
Maybe your are using the START command wrong (I'm not really familiar with it though). Put the additional arguments outside the quotes as extra parameters to START. If that doesn't work, maybe ...

I would say it's a bug. Also doesn't work with Lists and Maps.
Define i.i
NewMap m.i()
NewList l.i()
AddElement(l())
l() = 123
Debug l()
Debug TypeOf(i)
;Debug TypeOf(l)
;Debug TypeOf(l())

Also, I would think at least for lists, you would have to omit the braces to get type 'list' and not the ...

The 'ä' is probably not a regular umlaut character but a combination of multiple glyphs, like an 'a' followed by a combining diaeresis, that somehow gets misplaced on the 'n' (maybe a font issue or wrongly encoded ..or PB doesn't handle it correctly(?)).
for example see this:
https://stackoverflow ...

You might want to look into this as a starting point for a tokenizer:
Lexer for PB 4: viewtopic.php?t=22116
It's specifically for PB code, so not general.
In the mentioned german forum thread, the is a more up-to-date version.

BindEvent(#PB_Event_CloseWindow, @WindowClose(), StuffWindow)
BindEvent(#PB_Event_Menu, @PopupMenuStuffClick())

You didn't specify the StuffWindow for the menu bind, like you did for the close bind for example. That means from that point on, any menu event will trigger your procedure ...

There is also the option of dithering, alternating pixels between 127 and 128 to visually approach an 127.5
I wouldn't see the difference with my eyes if I wouldn't know it :) but there is a slight shimmering/flickering to the dithering.
I reused the code by Tawbie: If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 600, 800 ...

When putting a black transparent image, all the aliasing is done with a black background, so when it is saved, you see the black artifact. To solve it, you need
to put a white based transparent background:
I don't have a Windows to test, but doesn't this just create white artifacts instead of ...

That works here too. But if i kill or close the app, the clipboard is still set correctly. PB probably uses gtk functions for clipboard, so maybe event processing is necessary to make it work. If that's the case, the clipboard library doc should mention that.

If i run xclipboard first and then run the code, then xclipboard as well as KDE clipboard manager shows the correct string.

SetClipboardText("abc123")

Doesn't seem to work here.

I run this code, then open a new tab in the IDE and repeatedly press ctrl+v. Nothing is pasted the first couple of times and after a while what is pasted is what was in the clipboard ...

On Linux all images look the same, no dark edges. On Windows there is some strange blending going on. The transparent edges are blended with the transparent black. Color and alpha is not replaced during drawing but blended in some strange way. #PB_Image_Transparent is transparent black, that's why ...
