 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

After many years of using MM EDIT & even requesting extra features, I accidentally found the PASTE Button in MM Chat!!! I was often frustrated with not being able to copy from the Edit Screen & then paste into the Chat screen using CTRL C & V. Paste button is good. Thanks Jim. @Jim, Speaking of requests, is it possible to add SETTICK to the Report Variable Usage list? I recently found I was using the same SETTICK in two different places causing intermittent problems. (I do realise that a good programmer would keep track of these things). Thanks ChopperP |

Use search to find any duplicates for things like that.  I use that feature quite a bit, and it has saved my sanity more then a few times with accidental duplicate variables etc. Sixth little icon from the left - looks like a torch/flashlight. Click that, setup your search criteria, click FIND. If no match found, it is not in the code at all, or if only found once, then you are in good shape.  If FIND yields a result, click on FIND NEXT to see if there is another one in the code. Works a treat.Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

The paste button was needed because all (or as many as possible) key strokes should be passed directly to the attached device, not used by MMEdit. I have been considering adding a function to list all lines that contain a word (or phrase). It would list the line number and the full line in the report window. I don't want to try and implement anything like a syntax checker or tell anyone how to program. Jim VK7JH MMedit |

@Grogster, Yeh, I use FIND quite a lot. Invaluable. Now that I am aware I can double up on things like SETTICK, I can check these for duplicates. @Jim. OK. I understand. Makes sense. A list of words or phrases would be good. Thanks guys ChopperP |
