I am new here and hope I am not posting somewhere not relevant.
I keep coming back to QB64 from programming in other languages because of it simplicity and power. Because of its vast array of keywords and commands I find myself spending more time checking the syntax, by going back and forward in the IDE, and as much as its convenient having the help there in the IDE, I find it helpful having some sort of document (PDF or DOC) with the command, a brief one line description and the basic syntax of the command. I have looked around on Google and searched the forum briefly, but cannot see anything that might be similar.
Does anyone know of anywhere I could get such a thing? I was going to just set one up myself, but seemed a bit overkill if it already exists.
A looong time ago, on the old qb64.org forums, we discussed rounding numbers, and out of it came some functions:
For rounding type _FLOAT:
FUNCTION Round## (num##, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundUp## (num##, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundDown## (num##, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundScientific## (num##, digits%)
For rounding up (DOUBLE, SINGLE):
FUNCTION RoundUpDouble# (num#, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundUpSingle! (num!, digits%)
Convert to string, getting rid of scientific notation (DOUBLE, SINGLE):
FUNCTION DblToStr$ (n#)
FUNCTION SngToStr$ (n!)
From what I recall, they were all working.
This weekend I dug up the code to use in a new program,
and added the equivalent rounding and convert-to-string for all 3 types (_FLOAT, DOUBLE, SINGLE):
FUNCTION Round## (num##, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundUp## (num##, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundDown## (num##, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundScientific## (num##, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundDouble# (num#, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundUpDouble# (num#, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundDownDouble# (num#, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundScientificDouble# (num#, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundSingle! (num!, digits%) <- not sure this one works: when digits%=3, it rounds .31 to .32
FUNCTION RoundUpSingle! (num!, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundDownSingle! (num!, digits%)
FUNCTION RoundScientificSingle! (num!, digits%)
FUNCTION DblToStr$ (n#)
FUNCTION SngToStr$ (n!)
FUNCTION FloatToStr$ (n##)
Everything seems to work as expected, except for the function RoundUpSingle!, which for some reason rounds 0.31 to 0.32.
I've been comparing code and checking everything and am not seeing what is causing this, or whether the problem is in RoundUpSingle! or SngToStr$.
Maybe a second set of eyes would help...
If someone could spare a couple minutes to look at this and find what's the wrong, it would be most appreciated!
These functions might come in handy for someone.

1. As I mentioned in another thread, I wrote extensive QB programs Back in the 80s & 90s when RAM and HD space was at a premium. I used MKI$, MKS$ and MKD$ extensively in my databases.
Converting the programs using QB64 I noticed they, MKS$ etc., were not converting back properly with CVI, CVS, and CVD.
I found and tested CVSMBF and that seemed to work. Does that mean to continue accessing/using my existing databases with QB64 EXEs I must modify the syntax by adding MBF to all of the above, e.g. MDS$ becomes MDSMBF$, etc.?
2. Is there a way to position the window of the running program so it always opens to the same spot on the desktop?
3. When the program exits, I sometimes get the message "press any key to continue" when all I want is the window to close.
i'm Has anyone done batch resizing of images in QB64?
I'm looking to make a simple drag and drop exe that you drag one or more pictures onto (or maybe send it a command line parameter with a path, or a path + a pattern) and it will auto-convert all the images in the folder to some predetermined target resolution at a high quality (or maybe be able to choose the quality vs processing time?) and write the converted images to target folder (or the same folder but with some prefix or change to the file name so you can easily separate them). It would support JPEG / PNG maybe also BMP / GIF, maybe specify the output format + quality?
Bonus if the created file retains the modified date of the original.
If anyone has done or seen this kind of thing, I would be interested in any samples or advice...!
UPDATE: I think ImageMagick is what I was thinking of.
It would still be interesting to do this in QB64, but ImageMagick with a batch file should work for now...

I tried to install Inform, but when I run the setup file, it tries to download files and the server is unreachable. I downloaded the source files on Github and extracted them to my QB64 folder. Although the inform design program works, nothing else works in QB64. I get error message after error message. Who knows how to solve this? Is there an installer that contains all the files?
