Yes.
Do you have the help file that comes with PureBasic? It's not the greatest documentation in the world but it answers a lot of questions just the same! Check it out!
Questions about Symbols

Actually, the Help file does not have much of anything to say about the various symbols, notations, and use thereof at all. It is sort of a gapped area, though some questions are answered here and there on the forums.
I am inclinded to think that a model program might be used to illustrate some of the fine points of putting together a PureBASIC program.

General Syntax Rules section explains #..
The documentation is far from perfect but it's not quite *that* bad

How about in the Index though?

The obvious place to find something when you know what it is, symbol-wise, is to look in the index. Unfortunately, none of the symbols can be found there. I didn't say that the Help files were "bad", but in the absence of a good manual, they have to do double shift -- simething they are not quite up to as ithey stand. Still, what do they say> "Better than nothing"?

True true.. I've been meaning to help with the documentation and keep getting side tracked... Excuses excuses I guess
