Thank you for this! I have finally updated from v3.1 unconditionally on Windows and Linux!
Goodby "xmessage" ROFLMAO well done! Although I find the MATE/XFCE notification window very annoying at times, it's cool to be able to come up with one of those too.
LOL actually tested with this code snippet:
Code: (Select All)
DIM x AS INTEGER
x = ASC("")to create an error on purpose. In addition to the new statements and functions.

I could see people adding at least the open and save dialogs to their programs to enhance the user experience. Rather than having to create a dialog themselves, they can just use the native ones without all the guesswork.

That's probably what I used PCOPY and screens that appeared to create popup message boxes. Yeah, that's a bit of work, but at least it is fully customizable.

Default worked, 17 Enter worked, Cancel as seen worked as expected.
I have to note the first time I used _InputBox, it used a different title than the one I spec'd, something about TinyDialog...?
The second time and every time after it behaved as expected.
