I have downloaded and installed Phrogram on Vista Home Premium, AMD Athlon 64 X2 It asks for the .net framework 2.0, yet Vista includes .net 3 it want the latest Directx, yet vista includes Directx 10.   When I run it natively I get the message "Phrogram has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working ...

I'm trying Phrogram in Vista, and after running DirectX 9.0c Web installer even the 3Dprogram run fine. But I have some problem with the IDE if I open a normal menu or rightclick to open the context menu, then the Phrogram spots responding and I have to kill it. If I boot my computer in XP it works fine.  Runing Vista RTM on a Dell XPS ...

Hi, I'm not sure if I'd be better posting this to the Tech Support forum, but anyway ... There's an inconsistency between how Phrogram treats the filename passed to OpenTextFile() and CreateTextFile() -- at least when run using the debugger. The call OpenTextFile("foo.txt") will read a file called My Phrogram Files/foo.txt, ...

Tony, You may already figured out (but I don't think that it's in the documentation) that backslash is a special character in strings. There are, I believe, fivespecial sequences that are recognised by Phrogram (and many other programming languages like C, C++, Java, C# ...). These are:\n - represents a 'newline' character \r - ...

Hello,  Phrogram seems to have trouble parsing a single backslash.  If I include the following in the code: "\\" then phrogram seems to treat the remaining text as a string literal. Am I missing something? Thank you, Tony

OK, so I was trying to do something slightly odd ... I tried to split a string using an empty delimiter. I was hoping to get a quick way of splitting the string into an array of characters rather than having to do it laboriously using repeated calls to SubString (which seems to be the only other option). Instead, this just hangs in the Split() ...

The Drawing.GetPixelColor() method seems to be extremely slow and, also, somewhat unhelpful. The following program shows that you can only get about 65 calls per second on a 1.7GHz Pentium M --- which implies it takes about 25 million instructions to execute! This strikes me as very wrong for an essentially simple graphics operation. Not only ...

  // Prints 2   Should be 5   print(IndexOf("ABCabc", "b", 1)) IndexOf does not appear to be case sensative!  It really should be, because if I don't want sensativity, I can match their case.  As it is, I'm hosed.

There is a difference between the DoEvents and RefreshScreen methods that need some attention.  DoEvents should be able to allow the program to respond to Windows messages (like closing the program window) but it does not.  Also, (depending on your implementation) DoEvents might be an expensive call to make in every iteration of a tight ...

I'm not trying to break things :-), but I seem to have uncovered another (minor) bug. The sprite Clone() method works fine for sprites created from image files, but seems to fail for those created using CaptureSprite(). The program below demonstrates this. Neil // Demonstration of sprite cloning failure for sprites created from captured ...
