I recently went to define a string constant for NewLine+CarriageReturn
but couldn't figure out how. If it's not possible it would be a nice feature.
(Implemented with #CRLF$ etc.)

I like those constants ,for example in VB its named:
vbCr Carriage Return
vbLf LineFeed
vbCrLf CarriageReturn and Linefeed
so why not do it like:
pbCr
pbLf
pbCrLf
Its a long way to the top if you wanna .....CodeGuru

I am just trying to port something from PowerBasic (cause I think it'll run faster in Purebasic).
In Powerbasic we have Constants like:
$C ="A String"
$XYZ = 99
AT compiletime the compiler just inserts these items where
the "placeholder" $XYZ is. Then everybody can make his own set of constants ...

I don't get you point.
You can do this in Purebasic:
#Constant = 256
#Constant2.s = "Hello World"
This is just, what you talk about, isn't it?

GRRRRRRRRRRR....
And the work of the programmer???? Is this???? Nooooooorrrrrrrrr...
Is this:
PB_Cr.s= Chr(13);Carriage Return
PB_Lf.s= Chr(10);LineFeed
PB_CrLf.s=CarriageReturn and Linefeed
Or if you prefer:
#PB_Cr=Chr(13);Carriage Return
#PB_Lf= Chr(10);LineFeed
#PB_CrLf=CarriageReturn and Linefeed
Do you like???
Is best. OK. The programmer need expand yours ideas. OK??

If its there, then you can define everything else easily in a ".pbi"-file.
