Can we get a #QUOTE$?

[Trond]

There is a contstant for double quotes but no for single. That's on my wishlist and should not take too long to make.

Why? Can you not just type ' in your code directly? A constant for doublequote is needed due to not being able to type """ but this is not a problem for a single quote.

[Trond]

Because I think the first code is nicer than the second code:

Code: Select all

s.s = #QUOTE$ + s + #QUOTE$

Code: Select all

s.s = "'" + s + "'"

And it's just a matter of completeness.

[Dr. Dri]

Code: Select all

#QUOTE$ = Chr(39)
#QUOTE$ = "'"

Debug #QUOTE$

I know how to define my own constants if that's what you mean.

I really don't see a need for this. Just my opinion

Me to, but if it makes Trond happy then why not...
A #NewLine would also be cool.

Code: Select all

#NewLine = Chr(13)+Chr(10)
MessageRequester("Test","Line 1"+#NewLine+"Line 2")

A #NewLine would also be cool.

Code: Select all

#NewLine = Chr(13)+Chr(10)
MessageRequester("Test","Line 1"+#NewLine+"Line 2")

Already Done:

Code: Select all

#CRLF$

I was thinking that too. Should we also have #A$ for the A character, and so on? It's stupid.

Constants for double quotes already exists:

Code: Select all

Debug #DOUBLEQUOTE$
Debug #DQUOTE$
