Agree. Now if only they would declare Chicago a prison, we'd have 90% of the Nation's criminals in prison.

PB works fine on my Acer Aspire with Windows 7 Starter. I did upgrade to Windows 7 Home to get some added utilities.

I stumbled upon PureBasic over two years ago and when I first tried it out, I fell in love with it. Fred has done a great job and he has stuck with it--both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

Sometimes when programming for the U.S. Defense Department, I'm not allowed to use software produced outside the ...

You will be missed, good luck. I know I've used your code and other ideas and will miss your input.

Don't be a stranger.

I agree with keeping BASIC in the name. When I tell someone I'm programming in a non .net BASIC,my power-user associates ask me which BASIC. When I tell them PureBASIC they nod and tell me they wish they could too, but their boss won't let them. They are stuck using C++.net or VB.net. Then they sigh ...

Apparently 128-bit CPUs will be so fast they will compile your PB programs before you even write them don't you know???

Luis:

I'm on my laptop traveling home right now. I'm curious about what will happen when I check out the example code you provided. I'll run it when I get on my desktop this evening and post the results.

You raise some very interesting questions about what PB includes and doesn't include in it's ...

Interesting question as to whether or not unused procedures are included in the final executable file. To find out, I put together this quick code snippet, compiled it to an executable program, and looked at it under a 32-bit disassembler to find out for myself.

Quick follow-up:

I know you coding geniuses don't hear it often, but we "new to PB" folks certainly appreciate your quick and appropriate responses to our questions. Most of the time we spend countless hours searching for a solution because we do not yet have the experience level to know where the ...

Thanks netmaestro:

Your code works great!

I was just using the code as a standalone program without any other window being opened. I really appreciate the help as it was driving me nuts. I guess that by opening a PB MessageRequester() window I was inadvertently providing the mechanism in PB to ...

Greetings:

Before the PureBasic site switched over to this new format, I read a thread by either srod, Chris, El_Choni, or blueznl, I can't recall who, but I can't find it again.

My problem is that I copied the example inline assembly code from their thread into a sample program on my 64-bit ...

I'm thinking about dumping my desktop pc and moving over to a laptop. I'd like to hear pros and cons from you laptop users, as well as suggestions as to which laptop I should consider purchasing.

What is required:

Under $1000
PC
The ability to add an external monitor.
Good sound quality for music ...

There is also a web site that tests anti virus products > http://www.virusbtn.com/index.

I use Avast because it comes in a 64-bit version for Vista/XP 64-bit OS in addition to a 32-bit version. For best performance on 64-bit systems, I recommend a top brand that provides a 64-bit version.
