 |

Request: add a hotkey "Proper Indent" to the editor.
desirable for the left hand.
Is that possible, Mark?

sure, no problem, but as 2083 is ready, it will be in 2084.
write an email to support (after the 2083 release) and i will get you a beta.

Glad to hear the next version is up and coming, I always look forward to seeing what's new!
Interestingly, just yesterday I came across two "needs":
1) I really needed an 8 Byte Integer data type for a sensor interface.
Lots of big numbers in the (many!) intermediate calculations.
The sensor's vendor's algo was all in integer math.
I ended up using Double Type for parts of the calculations and things worked out fine.
2) Related to that I noted that the Shift instruction works on many variable types, but not on DWords.
That had an easy workaround, with just reading and assigning Bit values, (perhaps not the "best" way to do this, but it easy and fast to code).
It just caught my eye.
3) Lots of new chips to consider... AVR64DA128, and the new Tiny-O series!
Looking forward to the release!

How comes that you can not express such a simple issue exactly?
First, your statement is wrong, Shift works on a DWord - DWord is a unsigned 4 byte integer - exactly as expected.
Only the Shift's 'signed'-option does not work, neither it works on a DWord nor on a Long.
Insofar your method of throwing out nonsense like a bone to a dog was not completely useless, the dog actually found some. |

If someone writes, 'Oh, btw. I've found some error in the spacetime constant, but it was a simple fix", while it was merely a misinterpretation of the bus timetable, it spikes surely my interest.
I apologize for any Pavlovian reflex posting 
There is actually a real bug if Shift is used with argument 'signed' and a long or dword, bit 31 is not saved then, this seems not worth a new topic.
Consider also that the TO posed a request and the request was granted by you, which means: end of story, victory, fini, mission accomplished, finito.
A bit offtopic really does not hurt his request or thread. |

Sorry, I, too, thought the OP's question was answered, and this was somewhat on topic, somewhat off topic.

I guess I should have check...
The Help states that it works for: "Byte, Integer/Word, Long, or Single variable"
I wanted to use it on a DWord type, and since five other data types were mentioned, but not the one I wanted, I didn't bother even trying the instruction.
I just used an alternative approach.
Next time I'll be more through in my testing, and provide an example, before I make such a statement.
Obviously had I done so it would have revealed that the compiler can handle it.
My mistake.
