Yeah, Random.  Oops. 

So Random.txt is what gets edited and that drives the html?  That's why the superscripting disappears.  :whistle: Ok I can work on it.

Yeah, it works great and it stops any consistency errors with different people have different html styles. It's also a useful test that I've compiled AutoIt correctly (as autoit is used to run these scripts B) )

Opt is mentioned only as an aside in the AutoItSetOption topic .. should appear in the Function Reference topic, even if it links to the same AutoItSetOption topic from there.

It's also missing from the TextPad SYN file, which is kindly included with the install.

Have posted Feb 26 updates that cover most stuff and am going to bed

ChangeLog sorta

Jon reserves the right to shorten my HotKeySet remarks--but I'll reserve the right to harass Jon if he removes anything that is later asked in the support forum :whistle:

Sluggie .. (?)

You may also want to update the "..\AutoIt3\Extra\Editors\TextPad\Manual Install and Notes.htm" file regarding setting up Context Sensitive Help for AU3 in TP .. with a simplified method that is independent of KeyHH.exe  :whistle:

Trids, I have submited it to Jon a while ago together with the Crimson description, and updated it this week with the path to find keyhh.

Since its your base doc, why don't you take the version in the Extras and and sent an updated one to Jon ?

Noticed a (very) small error within the current helpfile for BitAND:

Example

$x = BitAND(13, 7) ;x == 5 because 1101 AND 0110 = 0101

...Should read:

Example

$x = BitAND(13, 7) ;x == 5 because 1101 AND 0111 = 0101

Oops

Actually it should be

$x = BitAnd(12, 6) == 4 because 1100 AND 0110 = 0100

And in BitOr

$x = BitOr(12, 6) == 14 because 1100 AND 0110 = 1110

I meant to use the same numbers when I came up with the examples to show what happens for each bit pattern (00, 01, 10, 11).

I'll have one more batch of fixes: Mostly cross-referenceing things like FileGetTime and FileSetTime but also important fixes.

Note on Random Function: We need an example that generates a random leter of the alphabet!

Suggest for UDFs:

Function: _ColorGetRed( $color )

Description: Get the red component of a given color.

Parameter(s): $Color - The RGB color to work with (numeric).

Requirement(s): should you put #include <Color.au3> here?

....

That's all for now

Note on Random Function:  We need an example that generates a random leter of the alphabet!

Would this work?

;Randomly pick an integer between 1 and 26
$value = Int(Random(1, 27))

;Randomly pick case of the resulting letter
IF Random(0,1) < .51 Then
  ;Assigns uppercase value to $letter
   $letter = (64 + $value)
Else
  ;Assigns lowercase value to $letter
   $letter = (96 + $value)
EndIf

;Display the result
MsgBox(4096, "Result", "The random letter is '" & Chr($letter) & "'")

Edit: Changed maximum value in first random statement to 27, after realizing that 26 would never be a result.

Note: It may be less confusing to use the code: $value = Round(Random(1,26))

I was thinking of something a bit simpler:

$randomUpperCase = Chr( Random(Asc("A"),Asc("Z") )

$randomLowerCase = Chr( Random(Asc("a"),Asc("z") )

You'll never get Z with that.

I was thinking of something a bit simpler:

$randomUpperCase = Chr( Random(Asc("A"),Asc("Z") )

$randomLowerCase = Chr( Random(Asc("a"),Asc("z") )

Unfortunately "Z" nor "z" would never be returned as a result... I realized this after I made my initial post, since the upper limit is never actually returned as a value of the random function.

However, the following code would work:

$randomUpperCase = Chr( Round(Random(Asc("A"),Asc("Z")))
$randomLowerCase = Chr( Round(Random(Asc("a"),Asc("z")))
