thanks charles, the embed a file idea I like very mucho
a) I have tested your new example:
the embedfile for "scriptbasic" (project folder) doesn't work here correct. I can compile the scriptbasic example with oxygen but there's no running.
b) "#file": that was only an idea to cut some parts of oxygen (assembler code) from the "#file" part and wanted to include and convert to powerbasic (that was a very hard work to collect all files!) but was a good exercise too. mword/tword part I haven't translated all the functions are linked to another oxygen include files (haha *smile*) and so I can imagine it's better to convert all files or bind oxygen.dll for my "funbasic" project. but "PE" has to implement too, that's a very big job I can see but how does it work for powerbasic I haven't idea at this moment..
c) my thoughts about that topic today is that it's nearly impossible to create a "compile" file (I wanted to create from powerbasic side an exe file that's do the work for me to start the compiling job for my funbasic *.bas file. the idea I liked very much, but that's not working here
thanks for feedback, I have still to learn much more about oxygenbasic and the source is very, very interesting stuff.
perhaps I will send you an example next days, what's possible here or if that's working for embedding my "funbasic.dll" and an example file (*.bas) to compile (exe bundle) . nice weekend, frank
