What is a plethora?
Basically it means "A large amount".

This is what I use for random temp files: (Windows only)
Code: Select all
Procedure.s timeStamp()
; creates a hex <timestamp> string. Usually for a Tempfile name
; The hex number can be easily turned back to time with Val("$"+<timestamp>)
; 17 digits:
; 4[year]2[month]2[day]2[hour]2[min]2[sec]3[millisec]
; Why not just use the 17 digit decimal date? I do not know, I like the hex look
Protected st.SYSTEMTIME,tq.q
GetLocalTime_(st)
tq= (st\wYear*10000000000000)+
(st\wMonth*100000000000)+
(st\wDay*1000000000)+
(st\wHour*10000000)+
(st\wMinute*100000)+
(st\wSecond*1000)+
(st\wMilliseconds)
ProcedureReturn RSet(Hex(tq, #PB_Quad), 14, "0")
EndProcedure
Debug timeStamp()

What if you do the following: everyone offers their own list. For example, there is a topic where the first post contains several of the best features that most users agree with. Next are posts, one from each author, with links to their own or others’ source codes. You can also create a separate thread to discuss these lists, such as what should be included in the very first post, or prevent the topic from being used as an advertisement for your paid programs.
Yesterday I had the idea to make an "Include" folder with a tool that will check all function calls in your code and create a "ForSourceName.pbi" file. That is, it will add the prefix “For” to the file name and copy the missing functions into it. It will also add the XIncludeFile "ForSourceName.pbi" line to the source code.
But you need to make a division into simple and complex functions. For some, you need to add the entire file as "XIncludeFile", for others, only one function is taken.
