if you replace the first line from

Code: (Select All)

'FIREWORK.BAS

to

Code: (Select All)

_title "FIREWORK"

then when somebody copies your program into the QB64 IDE and then issues a save command it will save it as the first line suggest.
nice fireworks

'1.1, 2023-07-04: Changed hues by month.
