Major update in first post.  Hopefully fixed all the bugs with saving settings and defaults.
Also added find/replace capability.

Hi

The update attempted to build *.cad files.
You can download the complete bugfix at:

My apologies to Timo, I just saw "AI Overview" and 🤬

Point 1 should be directed at Micro$oft.
Points 2 and 3 still stand imo


Now that sync mode is working, time to try async.

If you opened the file using the short name, you can receive change notifications for the short name.

1. Searching for that quote gives me an "AI Overview"  .
2. We aren't opening files (unless the AI means directories as well).
3. "can" receive, not "will".

EDIT:
ReadDirectoryChangesW function (winbase.h)

Here's another example of rubbish documentation

If there is both a short and long name for the file, the function will return one of these names, but it is unspecified which one.

Well, honest, I guess.
But definitely rubbish.

I couldn't get async to work, probably because I don't know enough about overlapped etc.
Sync in a thread worked much better.

What I found when I used every filter in dwNotifyFilter
 - rename always returned two entries, old name and new name, as expected
 - create new returned one entry
 - delete file returned one entry
 - create via copy returned three entries, but one at a time, one for creation and two for modified (size and time?), probably because of the filter
You always get the name but there's no indication whether it's a file or directory.

That's as far as I got before bedtime

OK. Looks like I have a few choices here.

Hi all!

It can quickly become complex when macros are nested...

Even if that refer to nested macro expansions, now parser can deal with nested macro declarations. You can build that only with JWAsm family assemblers. An example is mtx.inc file, wich contain Array macros to mimic Basic arrays.

Updated in first post.

Using it in synchronous mode in a thread might be the easiest solution. Before returning from the thread, just send yourself a message...
