I think I've seen code like this in examples code
is this a valid code? It gives me an error saying I'm missing the EndIf
and BTW how do I split a long code line? equivalent to VB &_

It is not possible to split a long line with the PB Editor, though it would be a very nice option, especially when you have to deal with long SQL queries.

Thanks
Maybe the long line split should go to the whish list...

Ah, the legendary multi-line request
Do a search on the forum, it's a famous hot topic

Ah, the legendary multi-line request
I'm not able to understand the Fred's reasons for not including it.
I've developped a Pre-Compiler to add some special treatments in my programs, and also I've included this feature very very easily.
Why Fred doesn't?

There are times when I could have used a way to split long lines into multi-lines, but I think that we have to admit that this feature is a long way down the list of goodies that we need.
I'm still waiting for a do_game(asteroids) function.

I made a post in wishlist... just in case
As Seldon said, it is very usefull on those long SQL Queries, and not only. Using APIs with a huge list of arguments, you can easly get lost...

It can't be that hard to do.

it would mean that freak fully concentrates on this change of the IDE and leaves what ever he does aside for this time.
so this (not very serious) task will steal away freaks manpower from the main tasks for two or four weeks.
... if this is enough to make it stable.
I rather do without line merging than sitting on an unstable IDE.
and there are serious tasks in the main project, and there are more points than this one on the to-do-list for the IDE...
so what?
they made a great jump this version: actual OGRE and x64
and not all features are 100% stable right now.
... so why waste manpower with some nice-to-have-task that is easily replaced by one of a dozen avaliable plugins?
