To test as intended: see read me! file in zip This program is still under development, but feel free to make this code better with suggestions and better code There is an open ticket for a bug in _GUICtrlRichEdit_StreamToFile so the script uses a workaround: https://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit/ticket/4038#ticket Wanna take a look at the code? Here you go: #cs name: MiniMark function: a minimalistic editor for custom rtf files version: 4 made by: TheAutomator project: https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/212763-minimark-a-minimalistic-rtf-editor todo: • make user level install possible (requested by argumentum) • allow dropping files to gui • add shortcut to incert and change checkmarks • consider sort lines, remove duplicate lines, remove whitespace button • add file changed indicator • add right click menu on edit • check if programfiles exist when opened • look into embedding images and sounds into compiled exe • make variable names better (autoit rules) bugs in AutoIT rich edit functions: https://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit/ticket/4038#ticket https://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit/ticket/4040#ticket should be fixed in next version! remarks: to test MiniMark without compilation: • copy "MiniMark.au3" in the "MiniMark" folder and run it (title font will be the default one if you don't install the font) to install and test MiniMark as intended: • compile minimark to exe (with options, the exe will apear in the "MiniMark" folder) • compile setup to exe (with options) • use the setup to install MiniMark • restart computer (if things don't update directly) • rightclick to create a new mnm file • double click it and tadaaaah! hystory: version 1 + added some changes inspired by Werty + code revised + added functionality like opening files with a window, noticed by Argumentum + added sounds version 2 + scrolling is now possible thanks to Pixelsearch + scroll code was revised by Nine + changed some code to prevent a sound to be played twice + added "return $gui_rundefmsg" to "func wm_command" version 3 + made an installer/uninstaller (needs install path choice) + removed unnecessary guictrlcreatedummy code + undo buffer is set to empty when file loaded + added search function with custom gui (work in progress) + added scroll bar (that is buggy AF) version 4 + code revised again + made find and replace work better + better custom scrollbar (based on cursor position in edit) + added "save as" shortcut + added option to silence sounds + added option to save zoom amount (bug -> see ticket) + new search gui + added settings gui + added ini file to save settings + added custom popups in same style as MiniMark + added about button with link to forum + added per-monitor v2 dpi awareness (requires windows 10 creators update or later) + added better way to create controls on the fly (not as many images needed) + added checkmarks + added upper and lower case hotkeys + added incert date and time hotkey #ce #Region au3 #autoit3wrapper_icon=setup\icon.ico #autoit3wrapper_outfile_x64=MiniMark\MiniMark.exe #autoit3wrapper_usex64=y #NoTrayIcon #include <guirichedit.au3> #include <guiconstants.au3> #include <winapisyswin.au3> #include <array.au3> #include <date.au3> #EndRegion au3 #Region MiniMark constants ; colors Const $color_text_white = 0x00ffffff Const $color_text_gray = 0x00c0c0c0 Const $color_element_gray = 0x606060 Const $color_control_gray = 0x404040 Const $color_border_gray = 0x202020 Const $color_text_red = 0x006600ff Const $color_text_green = 0x0000ff66 Const $color_text_blue = 0x00ff6600 Const $color_transparent_background = 0xff00ff ; font names Const $font_handel_gothic_bt = 'handelgothic bt' Const $font_lucida_console = 'lucida console' ; sound effects Const $sound_start = @ScriptDir & '\sounds\start.wav' Const $sound_click = @ScriptDir & '\sounds\click.wav' Const $sound_alert = @ScriptDir & '\sounds\alert.wav' Const $sound_stop = @ScriptDir & '\sounds\stop.wav' ; user interface images Const $image_alert = @ScriptDir & '\images\alert.bmp' Const $image_button = @ScriptDir & '\images\button.bmp' Const $image_MiniMark = @ScriptDir & '\images\MiniMark.bmp' Const $image_scroll = @ScriptDir & '\images\scroll.bmp' Const $image_scroll_down = @ScriptDir & '\images\scroll_down.bmp' Const $image_scroll_up = @ScriptDir & '\images\scroll_up.bmp' Const $image_search = @ScriptDir & '\images\search.bmp' Const $image_settings = @ScriptDir & '\images\settings.bmp' Const $image_size_down = @ScriptDir & '\images\size_down.bmp' Const $image_size_up = @ScriptDir & '\images\size_up.bmp' Const $image_tick_on = @ScriptDir & '\images\tick_on.bmp' Const $image_tick_off = @ScriptDir & '\images\tick_off.bmp' ; files Const $file_intro = @ScriptDir & '\data\MiniMark.mnm' Const $file_settings = @ScriptDir & '\data\settings.ini' #EndRegion MiniMark constants #Region custom gui create functions ; create titles.

Very helpful indeed! First off... Thanks for downloading my Program and troubleshooting it. It does not surprise me that there are variables in it that are not use. They come from other Programs that I have written. Good old Copy/Paste! If unused or repeated LOCAL variables would have stopped PayFiler from running.... believe me, I would have fixed them! I am not a "Pro" coder.... just a hobbies at best. Even with what you found.... I hope that you are able to install and use it. Thanks again for bring what you found to my attention. I will be going back through my code and fixing these problems that I was not aware of. After I "get the bugs out" I will unload it again. If you come across any other problems with my code or how it runs... please let me know...

One last comment on this issue. I was wondering if it was the GUICreate or the GUISetState that needs to be delayed... Guess what, it doesn't matter, you can put the Sleep(100) anywhere and it will work correctly (at least with the few scripts I tested). Nevertheless, putting it between GUIs creation would make generically more sense.

Thanks musashi and water for all help i go on with base64 instead..

MsgBox( $MB_TOPMOST, "Error Creating Session: ", & @error) MsgBox( $MB_TOPMOST, "Error Creating Session: ", ^ ERROR :_) MsgBox( $MB_TOPMOST, "Error Creating Session: ", @error) But that part Is WAMP page accessible in that moment if you manually type http://localhost/ in normal browser?

What do you expect when you encode AND decode at the same time?

Open just re-opens the current file at the moment, need to implement a good save and open function soon (work in progress) thanks btw!

For those who are interested in what I'm making: Gonna upload this in the example scripts and udf's section https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/212763-minimark-a-minimalistic-rtf-editor/

I tested different delays, and 100 was working for all computers.

Ah I see. Sorry, still catching on to stuff in VSCode

FYI, I tested on other computers. Older computer reacts correctly as it should be expected. Faster (more recent) computer behave exactly as I am experiencing. So this is not related to my own computer. It seems to be another of those timing issues with AutoIt. Sadly not the first, not the last... For those who face the same problem as I have, here a simple solution : #include <GUIConstants.au3> #include <Constants.au3> Example() Func Example() Local $hGUI = GUICreate("Main GUI", 300, 70) GUISetState() Sleep(100) Local $hGUI2 = GUICreate("", 280, 30, 10, 10, $WS_CHILD, -1, $hGUI) GUISetFont(11) Local $idLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("This is a test", 0, 0, 100, 30) GUISetState() MsgBox($MB_OK, "", "Test") Do Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE EndFunc ;==>Example Slow down the creation of child GUI by putting a Sleep in between. It is working on all computers correctly now.

I have not checked Logan's extension, but in mine i have not yet implemented any folding information provider 😉
