Hey, it worked this time

Anyway, my 'company' (PQBC) is working on a TUIE (Textual Interface User Environment) in which is SCREEN 0 (for the most part.) To bad this can't happen with a one man army

I need help with:

1. Ideas: Anything any everything will help.

2. Useful SCREEN 0 SUBs and FUNCTIONs. Maybe a library would help, but I kind of doubt any SCREEN 0 library exists.

2.5. Speaking of library, I need a library for PDS with CALL ABSOLUTE. My copy of QBX library files are corrupt.

3. A SCREEN 0 file manager. QuickBasic style would be greatly appreciated. Have the selected file as a STRING($)

4. (for people who have used WINDOWS X) Ideas that would have been useful for their spinoff of DOS. I am developing one, called DOS-E(xtended), which will be distributed seperately and with ECLIPSE.

GRAPHICS PEOPLE

I need screen savers (*.bas, please) for ECLIPSE!

Any and all help would be appreciated.

Hi PBQC,

Go to my website (http://www.ascii-world.com)

Then hit the "libraries" section

you might like what you see there

there's a file management library, a memory manager, a mouse library and a video library for direct video I/O, assignment, etc etc...I think that should keep you busy for a little while

Last time I knew, ASCII-World wasn't too developed. Now, I check, and it has MUCHAS librarys, programs, etc. Great job developing. I envy all you great website owners. I could never do what anyone else here does. I'm too cheap to even buy a domain, let alone too busy to design the website.

You could have the same the problem I had... Are u also using CALL INTERRUPT, or CALL INTERRUPTX? If so... remove DECLARE SUB ABSOLUTE from your qbx.bi... trust me it works... I've done it myselfs again with PDS...

No, when I use CALL ABSOLUTE when trying to activate my mouse drivers, it shuts down PDS. So I'm kind of stuck with QB4.5 using NewQB.qlb, .lib, etc.

Try removing it like I said from x:\bc7\src\qbx.bi, where x:\ is your drive where you installed PDS. Just try it...
