Ony for your syntax checker

A correct and clean way to manage sequentially stored structures is to refer data using linked lists and/or pointers inside the structures.

Maybe but why should I put the screen datas on an array/linked list first?
Thats not fast and not useful in all cases....

btw, using an extra variable pointer will hardly impact on the perfs..

and it's easy to use this syntax:

Code: Select all

*var.byte = @"test"

while *var\b
  debug *var\b
  *var + 1
wend

*pointers can be incremented, so there's no problem :roll:

Yes that is the only correct working solution.
All others are not.
