Documentation for QuickRef Api

It seems like almost all of the API is undocumented to purebasic. If I could I have some more documentation for API I would not have to look in the Microsoft Dev Network, which is painfully tedious.

There's no way the PureBasic team can produce and maintain documentation for an SDK of that size. However, if you download the Windows 2003 SP1 sdk here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... laylang=en

you can burn it to a disc and install it to your harddrive. Then, whenever you're in the PB IDE you can place the cursor on an API command, say something like SetTimer_( , and it will pull the relevant page right up off your local disk. It's excellent documentation, quite complete and easy to navigate.

or you download this:

and put the file into your 'help' folder. Then when you hit f1 over an api command you get the relevant page.
