What's right is what's left if you do everything else wrong. - Robin Williams sooo, I found the solution to my stupid little problem and poor little freeBASIC has been wrongly accused again! :? :shock: :twisted: if you have this problem you can fix it by putting this in your .bashrc: export MSYS=di...

I agree that it is probably related. I tried the solution posted by dkl (apparently, it's from /examples/console/disable-vt100-escapes.bas). extern "C" extern __fb_enable_vt100_escapes as long dim shared __fb_enable_vt100_escapes as long = 0 end extern It didn't work for me. [this solution...

versions: FB 1.09 and 1.10, (I downloaded FreeBASIC-1.10.0-winlibs-gcc-9.3.0.7z) windows 10 with msys2 (bash, xterm) anyone else seen any symptoms like this? no output at all if I'm at the bottom of the screen. if there's enough output so that it needs to scroll, I see a flash of text going by, and ...

I was just playing around with the online freebasic compiler at jdoodle on my phone. It works pretty well and it's fast. You can upload files, and it has a collaboration feature. Versions 1.07 or 1.05. Click the menu button (...) next to the Execute button for a pop up menu. I didn't try to do anyth...

A little love for var. var is one of my favorite features. I think it's elegantly done, it's optional, and it's not that hard to remember: var isint = 5 ' always integer var isdbl = 5.0 ' always double var issngl = cast(Single‚ 4.14) ' explicit etc... of course where it really is helpful is with UDT...

The whole purpose of the WinFBE_Suite package is to make the process of using FreeBasic more noob friendly. You mean this file, correct? WinFBE_Suite.rar If so, then that is the file that is in your json file on this page (winfbe.json): Scoop Extras so they seem to be using the most reasonable vers...

Both: "scoop info freebasic" and "scoop install freebasic" do not show (above) form where reeBASIC-1.07.1-win64.zip is downloaded. So, apparently it works, but how do you know that you aren't downloading and installing something else (virus, malware) with the same name? Scoop us...

Windows now has at least two Package Managers, Chocolatey and Scoop. I found FreeBasic on Scoop , and it's up to date.

I found the long-lost libs for fastcgi on github. https://github.com/FastCGI-Archives (if this isn't news, sorry. i did a search or two...) A guy rescued them using archive.org's wayback machine . Maybe someone could update the link on the wikki? (I'm new here...) The page has several sets of the li...
