Can't comment on the patern$="*.*" stuff (which I think needs to be client-side) but the file size thing is already in..

Since I recently tried to write my own FTP back-up functionality, plenty of ideas made their way into my head. Most of ‘em was things I wanted to make with developers of FTP protocol, yet some was about improvements of corresponding library. First, and most essential:

*Handle = FtpID(#Ftp ...

Anybody has success with the new Xors3D wrapper?
Well, finally got enough time to test it. Excluding recent "outdatement" of few samples and overall loss of FPS everything seems to work fine enough. Still not too fresh for engine with (nearly) daily revisions, indeed, but a lot better than nothing.

*sigh* Please calm down. I was talking about the style.
Ah, that (sorry)... Well, I'm already using such naming convention a lot: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=41767
But such methodic only good for procedure blocks, 'cause defining of macros in macro just impossible right ...

Foz, fu~... Let's just pretend that I didn't heard that statement. Please, search a bit around that forum for speed comparison between PeekX\PokeX and pointers.

Just as planned. OK, you are right too, people. Kind of:
Macro ScanBuffer(CellSize, Buffer)

Right now PB's macro engine forcing us to writing things that way:

Updated first post to add new PassData procedure. Ability to pass any structures directly on stack for APIs like PtInRect was just one of things which I already ceased to wait from Fantaisie Software, so that could be also considered as self-help)...

i have some question, so why CallFunction of ...

Well, updated first post with recently added support for cdecl calls. No knowledge on 'user' side required – just automatized stack restoration. BASIC way, I guess...

...Dear charvista, I have some new present for you: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... 7&p=320820

Well, well, well… finally managed to do one-lined EditorGadet through defining my custom one. No, just one more (and last) question: is there any way to disable NOHIDESEL for vanilla EG without screwing everything up to point of crashing on Win7 ? I already implemented it through custom #WM ...

No, because it's not a bug if you don't do what the manual says

So, isn't a bug when compiler doesn't do required checks for enforcing syntax rules ? I'm out of words here.

And I feel like I'm feeding the troll here.

Honestly ? Me too.

If it works, it's just a fluke.

Then, if it isn't intended behavior, thread should be moved back to "Bug Reports", right ?
