Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Blessings to you and to all of your countrymen and women. May you continue to be a beacon to your well-wishers in the face of the barbarism of your neighbor who claims such an ancient kinship with you.

Hi Vadim,
I'm glad to hear from you and that you're doing well.
I couldn't have said it better than Lance (Lizby).
Best wishes!
Michael

FM v1.76 for PicoMiteVGA/HDMI

A simple definition of file list lengths has been implemented based on the available heap memory in the system.
For RP2040 -- 200
For RP2350 -- 256
For RP2350+PSRAM -- 1024

Hi Vadim,
this is the latest test version of FM.

FMC02207b1.SpriteFF.zip

What's new? I've removed the Replace, Cutter, and Merge modules because they've become obsolete with the latest firmware version.
There are improvements to popup handling (see the VGA-demo thread), the FindFile function, and the Jump to Letter function, as well as minor bug fixes.
Overall, hardly noticeable to the user, but it was a significant overhaul.

Enjoy! I hope you're doing well!
Michael

EDIT:
Additional note:
The player for MP3s, etc., works well, however, I occasionally experience serious crashes (firmware: v6.01, Heap: >100kB) when playing directories. These crashes even corrupt the code in memory and can only be resolved with a reset. I expect Peter has already fixed this problem in newer versions.

Hi Michael & everyone here,  

Apparently, our efforts with all the File Managers were not in vain, and we finally inspired Peter to take the plunge - to create a built-in FM.  

I survived the winter with my family, to be honest, we almost died, but now everything is fine, it’s spring and things are already easier, but the enemy just won’t calm down, there are drone and missile attacks almost every day.

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die!

Hi Vadim,
It is good to here from you.
I think of you often, always hoping for the best and wishing the war would end (on your terms)

Stay safe,

Hi Vadim,
Jim said that nicely!

I've been tinkering with the File Manager a bit more.

Edit (Due to the significant changes, I have renamed the Input function in v02266 to "LEditx$()".):
FMC02266.Music.zip

The following changes have been made:

1. The MP3 player now works perfectly (AFAIK). (Many thanks to Peter for the improved error handling!). This required reducing the maximum number of file items per panel to 350.

2. The user menu (F9) has been redesigned.

3. Drive selection for the C drive is ready. However, since some functions are still missing or faulty in version 6.0202b7, USB drive selection is not yet available.

4. The input routine has been completely redesigned and now allows the input of 254 characters across multiple lines with full cursor control. This prepares for path names with more than 63 characters in newer MMBasic versions. However, this has made the function slightly more complex.

5. A new file comparison function (Alt+F8) highlights files (or rather, their filenames) that already exist in the other panel or folder. (Experimental)

6. The new "Tree Info" function (Alt+F7) provides information about the number and size of files in a directory and its subdirectories. (Experimental)

7. The counting of selected file sizes is disabled when the number of selected files exceeds SMax (this can be set as desired). The number of selected files is then displayed as "-1".

8. Audio playback is paused with one click of ESC and stopped with two clicks in quick succession.

In addition, there are many minor bug fixes and improvements, as well as some general maintenance. Redundant code has been removed.

This version has been tested with PicoMite V 6.02.02B7.

Regards
Michael
