Re: How is XY 64 bit coming along?

What does cloc . return? I.e. how much code is the program? In a case study the vb6 to .net conversion time (with the help of VB Migration Partner) was 260 loc/h. Would that be an acceptabla rate for xyplorer? What conversion rate would be acceptable? How much code was the program when the .net beta...

Re: How is XY 64 bit coming along?

Without wanting to start a discussion, just a short note: Yes, it all comes down to waiting for the compiler to appear. I know that several groups are working on one, and once a good one is there I'll buy it. Pure curiosity: do you know of others besides PureBasic and RealBasic? Yes. • Which? • Can...

Re: '..' in list view and sort order per folder

I suggest the default (if no saved exists) view is used when changing directory, rather than the view of the previous folder.

Thanks!

Re: '..' in list view and sort order per folder

I'm surprised you would say no to a reasonable option like this when your software has a record in needless settings among all categories of software.
