incrementing a decimal...

I'm after an easy way to convert span 3.33.007-3.33.012 into this incremental cr-del list: 3.33.007 3.33.008 3.33.009 3.33.010 3.33.011 3.33.012 >From experience, I know if I add 1 to "07" the result is "8" and not "08". Thank you. -- Nicolas ___

Re: The coming of SVG

Hi all, long time not around, but clarity in language is a key point so my 2 cents : 1) I would much favor DRAWING versus image. The core differentation of a vector image is that it has been drawn versus "shot" by a camera for an image. That can be physically understood by all. The idea of a

Re: using LC as an emulator

I too have spent way too much of my life in HP BASIC. IIRC, it is tokenized before storing (around here called byte codes). One approach might be to figure a way to get at the HPB tokens and emulate each of them in LC. Also IIRC HPB uses a pretty simple symbol table for variables and such. Do

I believe the objection to using "vector" is because the object isn't going to contain only vector graphics. Eventually it will be a representation of many different image formats, a sort of catch-all that will replace all the existing bitmap and vector controls in the future. On 11/7/17
