Since all codes on Earth are full of devilry, this separator is also recommended for Main GUI

thanks for that link Dan, looks good for major seperations !
a bit like headers that used to appear on lineprinter output back in the day

ASCII sources are boring. With such beautifications you will start a bit loving them.

When compilers will accept normal human oriented editors, like WORD and PowerPoint for Windows with their DOC, DOCX etc files? There we can add graphics and tables for documenting, clarification and just for beautifications. Silverfrost/Salford, how about you, remember your glorious days of being first to offer something new!

But let's return to our poor sheeps, I still like to see very very much that SDBG to show the matching if/else/endif and do/enddo. Just right now I again was stopped with some my own bugs and again losing hell of time, swearing, hell angry at myself, trying to add indentations and separators, to finally find the ends of numerous if/endifs in my own code written 30 years ago as a spaghetti code.

Dan,

You have to eliminate the bugs !!

Bugs are "coding errors" not "devilry"

Throw out the Ouija board and give /IM a go.

You then have to develop a table of all variables being used. It provides a way of looking at the code in a slightly different way and could help identify where some coding errors may be.

John,

Both user errors and compiler. Have you tried to use FTN77 circa 1993 under DOS or the new Fortran90 features of FTN90 and FTN95 circa year 1997-2000? Then you should know what devilry means. Since then the Fortran part of FTN95 compiler itself was cleaned well already but GUI is not that heavily used and there I speculate still hide some last real devilry when the code crashes on one computer but does not on another. Or works when GUI small but crashes starting at some its size. Or crazy Simpleplot maked you nuts (good that Paul have introduced native %pl)? Or, in worst case, stuff works under SDBG and crashes without it not allowing to catch the error.

Probably you do not use Clearwin much. Count how many Clearwin+ %XX controls is in your program.

Actually only one hopefully last devilry actually worries me. Wanna try to find the reason of crashes of my property sheet? I'll pay $100 to anyone who will fix it. Could be my own error. But I doubt since it works under SDBG ok. Or find why 32bit debugger sometimes crashed right after Simpleplot call? Or when numbers in Simpleplot are >1e22? Though the Simpleplot is not interesting anymore.

Besides that there are a lot of other devilry goes in the place where I live, with the neighbors (their Jacuzzi for example roars like a 100kW transformer whole day and night resonating through the water pipes the whole area and no one cares and even hearing that. Is this possible people are THAT dense?), with the problems I am trying to solve being late on all of them by months and sometimes years. Even my town is called Grand Devil on the foreign language ! So yes, I am screwed like no one else! And I also see how many in the world are unbelievably screwed and even do not realize it but let's not talk about politics. There is a lot of totally amazing devilry in the world

noise ? easy to resolve ... call 911 and ask for the Sergeant Di Ablo , Hottub specialist !!!
