In order to allow $DEBUG to work with programs that call CLEAR, the connection handle used to connect to the IDE is locked by default and cannot be CLOSEd. With this change, the debuggee itself can now unlock the handle and close the link.
This reverts commit a94b738407.
It turns out that change stops the SHELL function returning the
child exit code, which is worse than having zombie processes.
- Changes CFont to sub__consolefont and func_CInp to func_cinp, in alignment with the rest of libqb/qbx.
- Adds stubs to all new console functionality, so we can still ship for other OSes with no bigger issues.
- Adds new keywords to syntax highlighter.
Window's CONSOLE support has been extended so that:
CSRLIN support added.
POS(0) support added.
LOCATE support added. (Works with optional parameters.)
COLOR support added.
SCREEN support added to get both character and color information of any point on the console.
tab() glitch fixed. (Which could cause an endless loop when printing with comma spaced text/numbers.)
_WIDTH support added.
_HEIGHT support added.
WIDTH support added, with 2 new parameters added so we can set the buffer width and buffer height also.
CLS support semi-added. (Doesn't accept colored backgrounds; it clears the screen black. I'm getting tired of working up console stuff which I probably won't ever use myself...)
SLEEP support added.
END support added so we now end with any keypress and not just enter.
_CONSOLEINPUT added, so we can tell the difference in mouse and keyboard input.
_CINP(toggle) support added, which allows us to get single character keystrokes from the console.
_CONSOLEFONT FontName, FontSize support added, which allows us to change the font and font size we use for the console.
_CONSOLECURSOR _SHOW|_HIDE, cursorsize support added, which allows us to show or hide the cursor in the console, and to change its size (from 0 to 100), as desired.
New keyboard commands added:
_CAPSLOCK -- returns 1 if caps lock is on, 0 if it isn't.
_NUMLOCK -- as above, but for num lock
_SCROLLOCK -- as above, but for scroll lock
_TOGGLE_CAPSLOCK -- toggles the caps lock state for us.
_TOGGLE_NUMLOCK -- same, but for num lock
_TOGGLE_SCROLLOCK -- same, but for scroll lock
Two new keywords added:
FUNCTION _INFLATE$ (text$)
FUNCTION _DEFLATE$ (text$)
Use of these commands can compress and decompress strings using the ZLIB library.
- Allows using _DROPPEDFILE as an array ranging from 1 TO _TOTALDROPPEDFILES.
- Using _DROPPEDFILE as an array doesn't reset _TOTALDROPPEDFILES (unlike when reading _DROPPEDFILE$ sequentially with no parameter), so it's necessary to call _FINISHDROP after working with the list of dropped files so it'll be reset.
New statement:
_ACCEPTFILEDROP [{ON|OFF}]
Enables a program to accept files being dropped from a folder.
New functions:
_TOTALDROPPEDFILES
Returns the number of files that have been received via drag/drop.
_DROPPEDFILE$
Returns the list of files that have been dropped. The function sequentially returns the file list and decreases _TOTALDROPPEDFILES with every read.
The statement works as INSTR does but starts from the end of the passed string (or from the specified position) and looks for the passed substring while moving backards.
Takes after VBScript's InStrRev: https://www.w3schools.com/asp/func_instrrev.asp
Closes #51
Existing syntax:
colour~& = _RGB32(red, green, blue)
New possible uses:
- Instead of passing identical rgb values to achieve a shade of gray, pass only 1 parameter for all color components:
colour~& = _RGB32(51) 'same as _RGB32(51, 51, 51)
- _RGB32 can now take an optional alpha parameter, which makes _RGBA32 obsolete (although it still exists for retrocompatibility):
colour~& = _RGB32(255, 0, 255, 30) 'same as _RGBA32(255, 0, 255, 30)
- If you want a shade of gray and also to specify the alpha level, you can pass just two parameters:
colour~& = _RGB32(51, 30) 'same as _RGBA32(51, 51, 51, 30)
In summary:
- 1 parameter = red, green and blue simultaneously set.
- 2 parameters = red, green and blue simultaneously set plus alpha level.
- 3 parameters = red, green and blue as usual.
- 4 parameters = red, green and blue plus alpha level (same as _RGBA32).
Syntax:
_ALLOWFULLSCREEN [{_STRETCH|_SQUAREPIXELS|_OFF|_ALL}][,{_SMOOTH|_OFF|_ALL}]
Existing _FULLSCREEN statement is not bound by _ALLOWFULLSCREEN's settings, only the ALT+ENTER key combo.
_ECHO is more of a macro than a new statement, as it'll perform the following actions:
1- Save current _DEST;
2- Switch to _CONSOLE;
3- Print the passed string (only strings accepted);
4- Switch back to previous _DEST.
None of the PRINT features such as USING, numeric variables, retaining the cursor are implemented/planned for this statement.
Closes #29
