Re: Why stays Global variable empty ?

Fair enough, I guess. A shame, though.

Re: Why stays Global variable empty ?

> Disable it is not the same, that will always add some code to your exe

Re: Why stays Global variable empty ?

> the variable name length is immaterial Perhaps not. When I run the following test, the shorter variable loops are always finished slightly sooner than the longer names.

Fangbeast, I just noticed "not Sydney" in your avatar.
I grew up in Sydney, my boy. What's wrong with it? :twisted:

though there's nothing there to access at all.

Don't fill it with more text than it can display? :shock:

Re: Hide from taskmgr

So block them in the "hosts" file and you're done:

Code: Select all

Re: New OS version constants

Like Shield said: Debug #PB_OS_Windows_8 ; 90 Debug #PB_OS_Windows_Future ; 200 My guess is that #PB_OS_Windows_10 will be 100 when Windows 10 actually get released to the public.
