Does this help at all?

I've just started trying to program again and it's amazing how quickly you forget the keywords and programming procedures. I know I'm getting old, but I didn't think I'd forget so much, so quickly. It's like being a novice again. I have forgotten virtually everything I ever knew about Liberty BASIC...

Can we move away to some cross platform toolkits like iup or fltk or wxWidgets? There are some GUI toolkits that are designed specifically to work with SDL 2 but I don't know how compatible any of them are with the Windows GUI. There's also the issue of how easily they could be interfaced with BBC ...

LB is an easy dialect to use, but of late it has become stagnant. For future generations, consider creating lbbooster for Bbc for SDL. The main problem with that is Liberty BASICs dependence on Windows. The GUI features of the language (particularly the various window types such as dialog boxes and...

I used profiler and the slow line are print #ini.main, "color ";240;" ";190;" ";150 or print #ini.main, "set ";CoorX(x);" ";CoorY(x) Plotting individual pixels on the screen is a very inefficient way of drawing graphics, not least because it will in...

I've moved to a host with no formal b...

I spent all yesterday trying to get logged in the forum < https://lbb.bbcbasic.net/forum/ > I completely failed... Then I log in using < https://lbbooster.com/forum/ > its worked ... I think this has to do with the CAPTCHA. When you log into the forum, there is a Google Invisible reCAPTCHA to check...

I just wrote a tiny program saying Beep. After that I want the program to delete itself. Is there any away to do that? As this is a general Windows question, and not specific to LBB (or LB), did you try Google? A search finds several hits for me. The simplest approach found by Google seems to be to...

This is just a test to check that I can post a new topic.
