Wishlist for all?

Post by Michael Vogel »

What about a possibility to create a excel sheet or database containing the wishlist of commands and functions we need day by day, like windows API relating stuff (ShowMouse, HideMouse, DefMouse,...), simple math (inc, dec, pred, succ, min, max, scale,...), flow control (do/loop, Case TO n/Case n TO,...) and other cool things are useful.

It's clear, not everything can be implemented, but maybe a lot of users would expanded the list or rate the entries done by other users.

It would have to include (at least) suggested values for:

Code: Select all

categorie   integer math
type        function
name        imin
parameter   .w,.w
returns     .w
description returns smallest of two integer values
rating      useful
---------------------------------------------------------------------
categorie   math
type        function
name        min(v,v [,v[,v[...]]])
parameter   .f,.f,...
returns     .f
description returns the smallest of given values
rating      maybe some users prefer such a min function
---------------------------------------------------------------------
categorie   flow control
type        -
name        CASE TO n
parameter   -
returns     -
description allows to ignore lower limit for case expression
rating      sometimes nice
---------------------------------------------------------------------
categorie   IDE
type        optic enhancement
name        Highlight corresponding "folding" end
parameter   -
returns     -
description highlights line with the matching line of certain statements pairs (if/endif, while/wend,...)
rating      had no good idea for an example
