Great work Fred. Fantastic to see the rapid updates.
Love to see posts from Fred saying "Fixed."

#PB_EventType_CloseItem seems to have disappeared with beta 2. Is it expected?

Yup, no longer exists as it is no longer used.
What was it used for?

I was using it in some libraries. Not a problem as long as it's expected .

As long as there are no complications with new constants.

Doesn't work anymore in b3 (and maybe before, I hadn't tested it in 6.01 yet).

Please open a bug report with a working snippet , I can easily miss it here

Ok, sorry.

Hi, FYI I see this fixed bug is not marked as DONE: Session History views are not maximized anymore
viewtopic.php?t=76506

So it's missing from the list but it's included in the beta 4 build, I've just tested it and it works.

On a different note, I'm not sure what is the meaning of this:

Note: The optimizer needs to be manually enabled for ASM backend as well to have any effect.

Isn't that option meaningful only for the C backend and when checked the compiler implement some code optimization ?
Currently I enable it only if I have a "pbcompilerc" selected and I ignore it when using the ASM backend.

Thanks for all the new compiler fixes

I'm wondering the same thing! Does PB now let you toggle asm optimizations?
Has that always been a thing?
Thank you for all the hard work.
