Schizandra - the QB64 English wordlist-walker

[Sanmayce]

Thanks for the feedback, for a long time this UNABLENESS to create really static binaries has been bugging me.

Who can shed light on how to create a static ELF, anyone?

I used QB64 2.0.2, today for the first time I tried the latest QB64PE 3.9.1, this is my way to compile without the IDE:

' How to compile outside the IDE, QB64-PE 3.9.1 ]]

   

Currently, I made a big move, buying the most powerful (benchmarkwise) machinette in my sandbox, callsign 'Dzvertcheto':

- Thinkpad L490;
- CPU i7-8565U 4cores/8threads, 4.6GHz single core max boost;
- FHD 1920x1080;
- 64GB DDR4 2400MHz;
- SSD 4TB nvme;
- SSD 2TB nvme;
- Dual boot, Fedora 39, Windows 10.

At the moment, with all my optimizations the max scroll speed in FHD mode is 227 FPS (160 FPS, with v.2.0.2):

   

Was able to run the v2.0.2 binary on 4K, the Frames-Per-Second were mere 28.
Surely with the new ELF (using the exact compile line from the top of this post), the frames will hit 32+, which is one line per second (the font is 32 pixels high):

   

Wanna salute all the QB64 contributors, QB64PE 3.9.1 proves a great leap for ... QB community, cheers.
