Anyway, this little program gave me the general feel for InForm and got me back into programming QB64, a win-win.

BTW, because you're reading the keyboard with INKEY$, __UI_CtrlIsDown will return -1 but you won't read "v" or "V" or "c" or "C", but instead CHR$(22) for CTRL+V and CHR$(3) for CTRL+C, as in DOS days:
Code: QB64: [Select]
That'll work.

very cool
It brings me back in the windows before this horrible w10.
Playing with your calculator I fall in this glitch (or feature?)
the first time that you make a SquareRoot I get in label operation (SQRT()) in an upper line more result of operation in a bottom line... this output stays during other operations while the line at bottom shows result of operations, if you use C then the squareroot in the upper line go away.
How to get this:
as first operation to do in calculator 1.0, or after another kind of operations if you
make 11*11 then press = and then SQR you get SQRT(121)
11
or
write 144 and press SQR you get SQRT(144)
12
I attach screenshot image.
Thanks for your Calculator
now I go to read code to enjoy of your comments

I installed QB64 development version, it installed without complaints
I installed InForm beta 7 without complaints, however your Calculator fails to compile with the error

In file included from qbx.cpp:2179:
./../temp/main.txt:29110:33: error: use of undeclared identifier 'PlaySound'
*_SUB_ALERT_SINGLE_S=( float )PlaySound((char*)(qbs_add(qbs_new_txt_len("SystemDefault",13),func_chr( 0 )))->chr,NULL, 65537 );
if I comment-out where PlaySound is used, then I get the following error

Check out the "Inform" forum; "Library not found"; Page #1; Comment #12 (https://www.qb64.org/forum/index.php?topic=511.0)
Something to do with a windows api being called. I run with Linux and you with Mac. Who would have thought?...
Fellippe solved that issue... Let us know how you went?

very cool Calculator 1.0 a clone of Window calculator (Calc.exe)
sorry for my bad communication...
if the behaviour of Calc.exe of Windows 10 is like that of Windows 7 then there is a different behaviour of your beautyful Calculator 1.0 vs Windows calc.exe
in the issue,
if in calculator 1.0 I type 144 ->sqrt I get SQRT(144) 12 and this is ok
now
if I type 9 -->SQRT I get SQRT(144) 3
so I get no SQRT(9) and more when I type 9 the "SQRT(144)" stays still on display and also this is different from Windows' calc.exe
if I type 9 +1 = I get SQRT(144) 10
so Calculator 1.0 has in memory still previous operation flag
Thanks to read
Good Coding

does compiling other programs work without issue?I compiled and run 3dballs without problems, have not tried others.
Post by: jack on August 31, 2018, 12:38:26 pm
had to change
Code: QB64: [Select]
- '$INCLUDE:'Calculator.frm'
Code: QB64: [Select]
- '$INCLUDE:'Calculator/Calculator.frm'
Post by: jack on August 31, 2018, 12:42:34 pm
the Return key works as the = button but the Enter key is ignored, I suggest that the Enter key also work as the = button. :)

if after compile failure I Quit QB64 IDE and then relaunch, I get the popup "Recover program from auto-saved backup?"
I choose yes, QB64 then presents me with the calculator source, however it's titled as Untitled.
the IDE then tells me that Calculator.frm is not found, then if I change it to Calculator/Calculator.frm it then compiles the and runs the program OK
but only if I leave the name as Untitled.bas
just now QB64 crashed on me when I right-clicked on some highlighted text, trying to relaunch several times failed.

if I rename "Calculator.bas" to "Calculator2.bas" (anything other than Calculator.bas), then it compiles and run ok
Post by: jack on August 31, 2018, 03:47:00 pm
I had placed the Calculator folder in the qb64 folder and it seems qb64 likes to place the executables in that same folder also.

@anon1 That'll solve your issue and also answer your question about checking the os being used to compile ($IF WIN THEN: http://www.qb64.org/wiki/$IF (http://www.qb64.org/wiki/$IF)).
