Made Last days for me an important Update of HalPromentBasic ...
I have changed some functions and Keywords.. its running all on a 64-bit machine now too

Halpromide Editor Shows at the start a Photo of the Stanley Kubrick film 2001 space odyssee because the hal Name belongs to this movie :)


**Can you Use Pictures from the Stanley Kubrick Film "2001: A Space Odyssey" in My Software? 🤔**

I have a question regarding the use of images and names from the classic Stanley Kubrick film "2001: A Space Odyssey" in my software. Specifically, I want to know if I can use single pictures from the movie and the name "HAL" without running into legal issues.

Here is the answer:
### Copyright on Images 📸

1. **Images from the Film**:
   - The film "2001: A Space Odyssey" is protected by copyright law. This includes any still images taken from the movie. You cannot legally use these images without permission from the copyright holder.
   - If you want to use images from the film, you would need to seek permission or license them from the rights holder, which is often the studio that produced the film (MGM or Warner Bros).

### Trademark on Names 🏷�

2. **Use of the Name "HAL"**:
   - The name "HAL" from the film is likely trademarked. Using it in your software could lead to trademark infringement issues, especially if it is used in a way that could cause confusion with the original character or brand.
   - To use the name "HAL" legally, you would need to check the trademark status and possibly seek permission from the trademark holder.

### Alternatives 💡

- **Public Domain or Licensed Images**: You could look for images that are in the public domain or available under a suitable license (such as Creative Commons) that explicitly allows commercial use.
- **Generic Names**: Instead of "HAL," you could create an original name for your software to avoid any trademark issues.

### Conclusion ✅

You should not use images from "2001: A Space Odyssey" or the name "HAL" in your software without proper licensing or permission. For a safe and legally sound approach, consider using public domain images and original names. If in doubt, consulting with a legal professional specialized in intellectual property law is recommended.

Hope this helps! 😊

N-string example from freebasic Convert

' -- convert from freebasic, april-mai 2024
' -- simple example string / zstring halProment Basic
' -- Generatíng a string of n repeated characters
'
function generateRepeatedChar(character as string, n as Integer) as string
    dim result as pstring = ""
    dim i as integer

    for i = 1 to n
        result = result + character
    next

    return result
end function

' Example usage
dim repeatedString as pstring
repeatedString = generateRepeatedChar("*#", 5)

printy repeatedString ' Output: *#*#*#*#*#

' Create a zString
dim zString as pstring = ""
printy len(zString) ' Output: 0


'In this case, zString is an empty string,
'meaning it contains no characters.
'The length of zString is zero.
