Re: Bug(?) with gettoken(...,'count',...)

A bit a matter of 'taste'... I'd think: if I want count and can just select between 'count' and 'countall', it's a "direct" solution. If I'd want count/all, and I have to select 'count' and also a flag - I'd think it's not so fine / intuitive. The problem is that nowadays nobody has reason...

Re: Bug! with gettoken(...,'count',...)

@jupe Thanks! Your tip is just the way for me to go! Seems over the years I forgot about GPC and so used GetToken. @highend @Don At least there is one :bug: - either in the function or the documentation! There are 3 counts that could be asked for: count of [all] tokens count of empty tokens count of...

Bug(?) with gettoken(...,'count',...)

gettoken('\\NAS\share', 4, '\') returns 'share' - that's expected. :tup: gettoken('\\NAS\share', 'count', '\') returns 2! It ignores the first empty tokens! :shock: :?: For me this is very strange, I think 'count' should return 4, including the empty tokens. In other words: the count of tokens is 4;...

Re: [Resolved] Custom File Association - missing something?

If this doesn't work:
- right-click file
- "open with", there: "select other app" (translated)
- select correct app, then click "always"

==> perfectly hidden, but always works for me! :maf:

Re: Individual fonts to a file name

Had a look at the curr beta :shock:
More than I thought I could ask for :party: :tup: :beer:

(Maybe I should have asked some years ago, when I played with some exotic codepoints...
I love to use these as separators for lists of tokens: no risk a token contains them :tup: )

Re: Individual fonts to a file name

OK: saw your enhancement of chr(): very helpful :tup: :appl: :D Especially that you can directly set the U+nnnn as chr(0xnnnn)! I.e. in this means we don't see the rules of UTF-16! Now *every* try of asc() on such a "char" must fail - it will interpret the high surrogate as a full characte...

Re: Individual fonts to a file name

OK: other view, but fiits here in the moment XY seems to work well with such characters on fiilenames, text, etc. But it badly fails with scripting... Here XY interprets characters as 2-bytes. In real they are UTF-16, i.e *most* used chars can be expressed by 2 bytes, but much seldom used chars are ...

Re: +++ BREAKING NEWS: XYplorer goes twinBASIC +++

Thanks God …. I sometimes had bad dreams about MS stopping support of 32bit apps… Seeing all the mentioned advantages: overwhelming! And all the old names being there immediately - great! All I can say: CONGRATULATIONS!!! And may it all work as you expect... (And: thanks to jupe, too!) Seems it's a ...

Re: Missing info in help for hidden tabsets

Can't help myself ... I don't ask for much, but just telling "it's disabled, and can be enabled by ..." in the sections documenting tabsets shouldn't be too much? By the way: it's almost nothing compared to the lexisting documentation - but shows how to use it. Now it's just "hanging ...

Re: Missing info in help for hidden tabsets

Thanks - but I did (only) look into .pdf.
As far as I know both are identical ...

But the problem is not that *I* couldn't solve the problem.
Help info displaying some function, but not describes how to enable them, lacks continuity.
