Allows QB64-specific keywords to be called without the leading underscore.
Per user and per project; affects nothing globally.
Allows prefixed keywords to be used even when it's set.
- 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.
