If you have a (preferably small) TKN created by LB Pro, send it to me and I can take a closer look at why LBB says it cannot be 'decompiled'.

Re: LB Booster version 3.21 released

I have released version 3.21 of LB Booster . I should issue my 'usual' warning that because of the update Virus Scanners are inevitably going to throw a wobbly: "Oh no, we've never seen that file before, it's bound to be malware". This is just a fact of life these days. If anybody does fi...

Re: LB TKN file

Not designed for Pro? Not specifically, no. I 've probably never had a TKN created by LB Pro to try. If the file format is different from regular LB4 it's likely not to work. TKN files are notoriously insecure (that's why LBB can 'reverse engineer' them) so maybe one of the 'advantages' of LB Pro i...

Re: Automate the Creation of the EXE File

I have developed a program to automate the progress. Good work! As you say it can be difficult to make SendKeys automation reliable. I think I'm right in saying that if there's an existing EXE (in the default location) the various fields in the Compile dialog are automatically populated from that f...

LB Booster version 3.21 released

I have released version 3.21 of LB Booster . The changes in this version are as follows: A new reserved word PrinterColor$ is introduced. This controls the color of text output by the LPRINT statement; it will only work after something has already been printed on the page (if only a space). You can ...

Re: UTC

Does anyone have a routine to get the current UTC (Greenwich Mean Time, Zulu Time)? I couldn't find anything with a search in the old or new forums. MSDN says to use GetSystemTime : " Retrieves the current system date and time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) format ". Google finds thi...

Re: Bring One of three windows to front!

How to bring external application window on top? In 'modern' versions of Windows (since Windows 2000!) Microsoft has restricted this capability, because it could be abused. Specifically SetForegroundWindow() and BringWindowToTop() only work in certain conditions . If those conditions are met I thin...

Re: testing

I offered to help with the testing. Have you had any further thought on the matter? I saw no such offer, and received no email notification. Perhaps the admin of the BBC BASIC forum thought it was inappropriate, I noticed that a couple of other recent posts about LBB disappeared before I had a chan...

Re: Can't get TRIM$() nor replstr$() to work

Still, replstr$() doesn't accept to replace a character by "nothing". It seems to work for me. I tried this program: print chr$(34); replstr$("Hello world!", "o", ""); chr$(34) 'include lb45func.bas And it produced the output "Hell wrld!" which is c...
