I have posted this kind of name convention before, but it wasn't welcome. But, HEY, lets go for a second round Very Happy

I'm in - the goals:
1) Easier differention between source files.
2) Source name should not be hidden
3) FASMW is known by its logo and doesn't need more attetntion with the name after it

some examples:
Notepad => open a file and it says: "file - Notepad"
Seamonkey (& most brosers) => open this board: "flat assembler - View topic - FASMW caption - SeaMonkey"

they both have their names at the end

Nice, but not perfect - if U try to save 'untitled' with some name, that name won't go into the main title (though it will appear in the tabcontrol)

Here is what I came to...
FasmW.asm

Code:
................

section '.data' data readable writeable
; Silent: changed caption
  _caption db ' - flat assembler ',VERSION_STRING,0

  ; new buffer for modified caption

How do you know that I hadn't left out the "Untitled - flat assembler" case by design?

I didn't tell that Untitled should be in... I said, when you give your file REAL name (like 'MASMSUCK.ASM') by saving, this new name won't appear in caption.
EDITED: I've changed the code. Placing cap_buf at the end of .udata section resulted in additional 38kb of .exe size... M-m-m-m... Reason, anyone?

Because you caused a lot of unitialized before cap_buf to become uninitialized.
cap_buf db 0
by itself is initialized data

Just want to let you know I updated my FASMW modifications to the latest version (IDE version 0.93.15.0 that comes with FASM 1.67.26).

You can find them here:
http://comrade.ownz.com/docs/fasm.html#idemods

The modifications are:

  1. Add configurable, external debugger support. You configure the path to your debugger, press F8, and the IDE will automatically compile the file, and launch the debugger.
  2. Display the name of the file being currently editted in the program's title bar.
  3. Default all "Save modified file?" message boxes to 'Yes'. For some reason, the author decided there are times when you don't want to save your changes by default. This differs from other applications which always pick the safest option: save your work.
  4. Show the length of currently selected text in the status bar. This is useful in measuring string lengths quickly, and then using them somewhere in the code.
  5. Map Ctrl-W to close file. This is a common keyboard shortcut that FASMW IDE does not have.
  6. Unmap Escape from closing the file. I frequently press Esc to close some dialog, and end-up closing the IDE by mistake.
  7. Change the GUI font to Tahoma, instead of Win95-esque MS Sans Serif.

This was actually intentional that it uses default 'Yes' when you close with Esc or Alt+X, and 'No' when you close with Alt+F4 - as I personally use Alt+F4 only when I just want to get rid of the windows, discarding whathever is there.
Once again a kind of interface weirdness adapted to my own habits. Sorry. Wink

Tomasz, I've spoken to you about this many years ago, but what do you think of putting in external debugger support to FASMW IDE? Your idea before was to keep out of the main IDE then, because you eventually wanted to add integrated debugging support to the IDE itself. Since that didn't come about (or is it going to come about? Smile), I am reasking the question. Smile

Well, if I succeed to finally design the long-promised fasm's full debug info format, it will become achievable.

> to finally design the long-promised fasm's full debug

Create a new debug format ? Why not support an existing one (DWARF/STAB) ? Many people miss it (OTOH I actually have no idea how they work Confused )

What is DWARF/STAB? Isn't MS PDB the most useful format (in terms of being the most popular)?

DWARF and STAB are more common on Unix-like systems. PDB is a proprietary file format, and isn't documented as well as DWARF or STAB if I remember correctly.
