Website and Help Typos
Re: Website and Help Typos
I noticed that for SC tagcheck the 1, 2 and 4 flags aren't doc'd, although the examples make their function deducible, but even then the 8 is listed as SafeSave but the example seems to indicate it as correct capitalization instead, I think this whole section was accidentally copy+pasted from SC tagsave.
Also, not sure if it matters, but using the command doesn't seem to mark the tags as dirty.

Just happened to see: in Help, ScriptgCmds
2 times the var
That's not wrong - but people might think it must be that way.
(And it's longer )
end
2 times the var
<br>
is shown as "<br>"
, when no need for it.That's not wrong - but people might think it must be that way.

Re: Website and Help Typos
A bit more of a real world problem:
Command load's 3rd operand is named [resource type], i.e. 2 words.
A person reading it often just doesn't notice that.
But a parser trying to "understand" commands, operands, syntax description etc does
(Yes: still working on that...)
And a 2-word-op-name seems to be bad syntax, doesn't it?
So could you please change it, e.g. to [resource_type], as is for many other op-names - that would help a lot!
(My parser says 'Thanks'!)

Re: Website and Help Typos
Not Website or Help. Not even a typo really. Just an inconsistency issue for those pedants among us
In the config there is a mix of 'and' usage. Sometimes it's and, other times it's &.
For example:
Tree and List
Startup & Exit

Re: Website and Help Typos
Agreed. But changing it would create an avalanche of work, and throw mountains of documentation into inconsistency with the new reality. So take it as a challenge and endure it.

Re: Website and Help Typos
Something went wrong...
I always saw Windows-Help and .pdf-Help identical. So I didn't specify...
I need the correct description of load() operand resource_type in the pdf...
There it still contains the ' '
By the way, to the (general) difference between Win-Help and .pdf-Help: the .pdf is less wide, and so formatting *sometimes* is quite bad.
An example is the shaded area behind "Example:" of the command inputselect, just a few lines in front of interfacecolors.

See the last 6 lines - that in real are only 3 lines, but rather long ones. In real:$list = <<<>>>
C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
7-Zip|C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
7-Zip|7-Zip Selected|C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
>>>;
text inputselect("Test: Caption|Data|Icon", $list, <crlf>, 1 + 1024);
// 1st entry: Caption -> Caption, Return, Icon: C:\Program Files (x86)\7-
Zip\7zFM.exe
// 2nd entry: Caption|Data -> Caption: 7-Zip; Return, Icon: C:\Program Files

// 3rd entry: Caption|Data|Icon -> Caption: 7-Zip; Return: 7-Zip Selected; Icon: C:
\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
It's really hard to read this way...// 1st entry: Caption -> Caption, Return, Icon: C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7zFM.exe

Re: Website and Help Typos
Windows-Help and .pdf-Help are identical.
The PDF layout options are quite limited in the Help software.

Re: Website and Help Typos
My misunderstanding?
25.7. 9:37 you reported new beta AND new help file. so about noon I downloaded the help-pdf.
25.7. 20:00 you reported the full version - then I downloaded that, too.
Seems the pdf was ready only after the info about full version?
Then
At least: a new downloaded pdf-help is OK
Thanks again!
Too bad for formatting.
Could you maybe change the reported text, so that each line is splitted where you want, eg like:
(Sorry: also for quote multi-' ' are deleted. Idea is to deeper indent the text part of every 2nd line, now shown by dots)

might be a bit misleading. Could even mean that this beta includes the new Win-Help...At least: a new downloaded pdf-help is OK

Re: Website and Help Typos
SC font still doesn't have "r" listed as one of the options for the area param, although the examples show it is valid.
