Hello,
Because of the abundant code examples and very helpful expert answers provided by the PureBasic community, since 2002 I've been able to create a number of useful applications to simplify tasks both at work and at home. I love PureBasic! I've always been able to find what I needed without posting a question.
Most of my apps involve parsing text files or clipboard text, and I've gotten reasonably proficient in using regular expressions in PureBasic. But, I also love the AWK language for text processing, and have used it in PureBasic with RunProgram. Recently I came across QSE for embedded AWK and SED. (http://doc.abiyo.net/qse/). My C++ knowledge is only "entry level", from one college class, and I have zero experience with C. I used the pretty clear instructions on the above site under "With MINGW-W64, you may run configure as shown below for WIN32". But, on my Windows 7 box this repeatedly fails, and I don't have the experience to know why.
I've found in my searching these PB forums that some developers experienced in C and C++ have made it possible to use Lua bindings in PureBasic. Although I've dabbled with Lua this way, and see its strengths, in my workflow using AWK has become so intuitive. So, is anyone interested in tackling QSE for PureBasic?
