Compiling a standard text editor with lb the text editor does not have word wrap. Using lb booster, can that feature be switched on with style bits. Currently, I am modify a texteditor that uses api calls. Will there be any problem compiling standard api calls with lb. Texas Pete I have just about finished modifications.

Yes. In LB4 the texteditor doesn't support wordwrap, but in LBB you can enable wordwrap as follows:
Code:
stylebits #w.te, 0, _ES_AUTOHSCROLL or _WS_HSCROLL, 0, 0
texteditor #w.te, 10, 10, 280, 280
open "Wordwrap test" for window as #w
wait

I compiled a text editor program with the lb booster. It did indeed have word wrap and compiled the program with out any errors. You have a fine little product. I am sure that I will have to do some tweaks here and there. I love Carls program but it is taking him forever to come up with the new version. I will recommend your program on my site. It is a great tool. I would like to send you some money. I will this week. Texas Pete

It's entirely unnecessary; LB Booster is freeware. All I ask is that you spread the word! I am sure there are many LB programmers who would find LBB useful, but don't even know it exists.
