All Data Codes and BaseU codes with compression updated and enhanced

Fixes and enhancements.
The coders now also show the compression rate in percent via a function call.

It is good if you eat little meat.
I myself think more about the suffering of the animals.
Look, for example, smoking or binge drinking.
Both are a huge business.

Soy-based vegan milk has a sales plus of 40% in 2020.

Hi, thank you very much.
This morning I added a function to all codes that support compression, which returns the compression rate in percent.
This works with the encoders and decoders.

Interesting is that many GIF can still be compressed quite significantly.

Now sows have become a real nuisance. But it is a bare man-made problem. The reproduction rate of sows is also not so high. They have offspring once a year. Rabbits are quite a different caliber. They have eaten up half of Australia. The population today is estimated at about 7 billion living specim...

Hi, yes, many thanks, those lines are a lot of text. Since there are no size limits, this can already slow down an editor when there are tens of thousands of lines. But this is a normal behavior with very large texts. Editing a text with hundreds of thousands of lines is usually no fun anymore. It a...

Annoncement - Compression Feature for the Data Codes added for testing and using. I just added compression support for the data codes. The codes are quite complex, so this is now the second attempt. But it looks very good. Please test it and let me know if anything stands out. There are also now ma...

Variants with integrated fully automatically LZMA compression added. This is the second approach to add compression. Structuring and embedding is now easier and clearer. The whole tool is quite complicated to code and debug. Misbehavior can occur sporadically, which makes this even more difficult. ...

It is not described anywhere like this, but it works to simply call the old timer with a new delay, nothing else.

Hi, yes thank you very much #Keya.

Best Regards Saki

That is of course correct #Keya, but practically it always depends on the situation. The StringFields_BF can therefore optionally work with a pointer to a string. But it is really only relevant if it is about thousands of very big strings which should be parsed in a loop. One could also say that it ...

Hmm, the buffer contains only one-digit characters, so here correspondingly Ascii. PB sees in it as string only "Chinese" since high and low byte would have to share two characters. I create a demo text here with a simple text editor. Under Windows, for example, this text is saved in Ansi ...

Yep, many thanks for the hint @Keya.

Here in this example I have to go back from UTF8 to UTF16.

Since this is asked more often. if you want to insert encrypted text into the Date section you need to do almost nothing at all. It is incredibly simple. :wink: Create the text with a simple text editor. Save the created MyText.txt file. Encode this file with the Data Encoder. Paste the generated c...

Hello, yes, thank you very much. So, I've had almost no problems with Defender so far. However, the StringFields_BF code seems to have fooled it. So I wanted to try to narrow that down a bit. Well, in the meantime, I've tweaked the code to accept it without grumbling. But that only reflects a tiny p...

Well, it seems that Defender detects the source code as a Trojan. The fact that it still means this very well-known Trojan and reacts accordingly violently makes me increasingly doubt the capabilities of the defender. You can't expect much more from it, if you use this example as a basis for your th...
