- Sat Apr 09, 2016 4:37 am #45152 I was very pleased at stumbling across a hextoint() function you mentioned in a post at the beginning of the year mmiscool. it's just what I'm needing, and something that would be well worth including in the Language Reference when there's an opportunity. Makes me wonder what other quiet goodies might still be hiding under the bonnet?

- Sun Apr 10, 2016 7:47 am #45220 I really love ESP Basic... I was wondering how to convert a number into a string for parsing, and on seeing reference to the int() function I suspected there could already be a corresponding str(), so gave it a try, and felt like a kid in a sweetshop when it actually worked!

So str() is another goodie which needs adding to the Language Reference.

I've been adding any Language Reference feedback to this thread because they aren't bugs, they're just reminders of info which hasn't yet made its way into the Basic 'Bible'.
Unfortunately, it seems that each time I open my mouth I'm invariably adding to the potential workload of others - which makes me feel uncomfortably like an ungrateful complainer - so please don't let me carry on if it is unhelpful or annoying.

- Tue Apr 12, 2016 3:07 pm #45382 Just another 'rainy day' suggestion... when the pressure eases, would it be practical to somehow expand or collapse the topics in the Language Reference?

ie: display only the list of topics, then clicking a topic would list all its relevent commands.
