Yes.

Do you have the help file that comes with PureBasic? It's not the greatest documentation in the world but it answers a lot of questions just the same! Check it out!

Questions about Symbols

Post by oldefoxx »

Actually, the Help file does not have much of anything to say about the various symbols, notations, and use thereof at all. It is sort of a gapped area, though some questions are answered here and there on the forums.
I am inclinded to think that a model program might be used to illustrate some of the fine points of putting together a PureBASIC program.

General Syntax Rules section explains #..

The documentation is far from perfect but it's not quite *that* bad :-)

How about in the Index though?

Post by D'Oldefoxx »

The obvious place to find something when you know what it is, symbol-wise, is to look in the index. Unfortunately, none of the symbols can be found there. I didn't say that the Help files were "bad", but in the absence of a good manual, they have to do double shift -- simething they are not quite up to as ithey stand. Still, what do they say> "Better than nothing"?

True true.. I've been meaning to help with the documentation and keep getting side tracked... Excuses excuses I guess :-)
