Heh, you and I are of the same mind. I'm planning on puchasing a 2nd copy of PB 4.0 final release if everything mentioned before is in

is this the 'public pledge' forum thread?

ok, i will buy a another copy of purebasic if it contains three additional things:

- quads (64 bit ints)
- fixed length strings (sorry

)
- multiple condition case

4.0 fred?

i want strings that are NOT zero terminated (i should say: i want zero terminated strings but i ALSO want fixed length strings

) ie. have a fixed length AND can contain zeroes, this would:

1. make it easier to declare fixed string fields in structures
2. allow unicode stuff

Take a small search around the forums concerning PB ... if I remember correctly, Quads will be in 4.0, and all platforms of PB will finally be actually feature complete w/ the windows version

Thus the only reason I will be buying another PB copy at that time. Finally, there will be a true cross platform compiling and feature complete for PB

i don't want everything, just a few things... then after that if i can think of many new necessary

features i may (or may not, depending on financial situation, my mood and the position of the stars) even buy another one... winning the lottery would surely help though

Of course there are things that I want.. and would like to see implimented.

But those are not the conditions of me buying another copy.

I think I started here with 3.72 .. not sure any more have to check my
backup logs.
