I am building up a new GB32 YouTube playlist called: "DID YOU KNOW..." that hilites some not so obvious facts about GB32.
Here is the second one, which is trying to look like it is being generated by an engineer called Xavier 'the eXplorer' better know here as (X), as he travels the solar system aboard: DX1; the space-ship "Discovery 1" from "2001: A Space Odyssey".
From the GB32 Help document... (How to customize?)
If you have a factoid that perhaps may have eluded the casual observer of GFA-BASIC 32 for Windows let me know and I'll be sure to add it to the list.
The GFA-BASIC 32 editor extension functions can be executed through the use of a set of predefined keystrokes or by selecting a menu item from the Extra submenu. To connect some functionality to a keyboard shortcut the name of the procedure should conform to a special format that describes the shortcut to use (Gfa_Ex_, Gfa_App_, etc).
Another way of invoking an extensibility function is to select a menu item from the Extra menu. To provide a menu entry the GLL must add a menu entry to the Extra menu in Gfa_Init sub using Gfa_AddMenu. This function adds an item to the menu and specifies a menu event sub that handles the menu entry when it is selected. Other commands are available to modify an appended menu entry. An item can be enabled or disabled, gets a checkmark in front of it, or its text can be changed afterwards.
