[Done] #Char

As there is already #Long etc. and saves me/us the trouble of doing this:

CompilerIf #PB_Compiler_Unicode
 #Char=2
CompilerElse
 #Char=1
CompilerEndIf

Debug #Char

SizeOf(Character) will change from 1 to 2 if you enable unicode, which is a bit more efficient than the #CompilerIf approach.

I know. and I just noticed somethingn else...

Try:
Debug #Quad
Debug #Long
Debug #Word
Debug #Byte

Am I just loosing my mind or didn't #Long return 4 in the past?
*scratches head*
I must have missed a memo somewhere...

Those are constants unrelated to the size of the data they hold. SizeOf(Long) still returns 4.

#SizeOf_<datatype> was used in PB 3.94 but was dropped. Use SizeOf(<datatype>).
