Happy new year Back dear Charles and whole Family Friends too

Thx for Update I will Check tomorrow...

Perhaps you can add next Update for oxide.o2bas file a simple

Code Select Expand

% Title  "Oxide"  ' or
String Title = "Oxide Editor"

Into MainWindow File lol

Regards Frank

Thanks Charles, Happy New Year 2024

...and finally you remove UPX ..cause lot problems with antivirus programs
i hope that i will in better mood for programming
and maybe add more stuff in my interpreter micro(A)
..maybe some openGL(even i don't like it  )
all best

When megabytes are so abundant, there is no further advantage in squeezing all the air out of binaries

As for OpenGl, my ambition is to make it more accessible for GUI applications. Perhaps an Opengl-based IDE which would be free of the limitations of Windows Edit boxes.

[Frank Brübach]

... more accessible for GUI Applikation ... Thats a good Idea cause its Not so easy for new User or Basic Users to understand new Concept of openGl. (ConsoleG) . I know three different OpenGL Setups from freebasic Powerbasic and Here oxygen Basic and all are different

Good Luck I am curious to See and perhaps I can Help a little or Support you with examples

[Pierre Bellisle]

Thanks Charles, great 2024!

Charles ..i get it , but then you depend on openGL as secondary thing
similar to Scintilla, i saw some sort of editors in games but they are DirectX
not openGL
well...openGL require lot of learning i guess...
OR i am wrong?

[James C. Fuller]

Charles,
  I don't do much coding but I do run new releases of O2 and BCX on existing code.

I was looking through your examples for some file io code other than put and get?

I have written O2 code using fopen,fclose and my own LineInput. I don't remember if I posted or not?

 While looking I  ran into this head scratcher with OxygenBasic\demos\MetaProg\UseBuffer.o2bas
I expected the output to be

one
two
three
instead of

onetwothree

I compile with
cO2m64 -m -64 UseBuffer

[Charles Pegge]

Thanks James,

This is code I have not looked at since 2012

In this case, the problem is a line in inc\RTL64.inc

line 4204 should be deleted or commented out:
  string cr=chr(13)+chr(10)
This makes it consistent with RTL32 and should resolve the null cr that you see in this example.

[Charles Pegge]

OpenGl is seriously complex and not at all intuitive, but the potential is great. It needs a few extra layers of support so you can do simple things with a few lines of code, and to provide plenty of open source code for more challenging projects.

[Charles Pegge]

For example, here is a simple Drag&Drop for images onto moveable box: it should work with bmp, jpg, png etc.

  % Title "Console Drag & Drrop Image Demo"
  uses consoleG
  BeginScript

  procedure main()
  ================
  if opening
    static sys res,wi,ht,imgn
    texe++ 'next texture slot
    imgn=texe
    static string wr
  end if
  if filedrop  'drag & drop file
    wr=filedrop
    filedrop=""
    LoadTexture wr,imgn,res,wi,ht
  endif
  cls ' .3,.3,.5
  pushstate
  move 20,-15
  UserMovement m1,100

  'display image

  flat
  color 1,1,1,1
  texture imgn
  scale 15
  quadnorm 1.0,Ht/Wi 'apply image texture to a quad
  texture 0
  popstate

  end procedure 'main

  EndScript

Thank you Charles Works very Well

[Nicola]

Hi Charles.
Thank you so much for this new and definitely better update.

As far as openGl is concerned, I think it has great potential. Unfortunately, I know very little about him. I'd love to have Consoleg.inc and other .inc related to opengl with explanations for each function and/or sub. For example, what are the functions for internal use only?

Cheers

[Charles Pegge]

Hi Nicola,
Potentially every procedure, macro and global variable is available for external use. The whole thing is designed bottom-up, based on use-instances (posh term for examples )
