bug / feature in input "", var?

[dumbledore]

try running this code in both qb and fb:

Code:

input "",a$
print a$
line input a$
print a$

enter something with spaces for both prompts. notice the difference?

hmm, maybe i'm the only one getting the problem... i retried with version 0.11b, and the bug remains. here's what i'm doing:

print "text:"
input "?",text$
print text$;"... huh?"
while inkey$="":sleep 100:wend

and the console output:

Code:

text:
?something or other
something... huh?

obviously, fbc is using a function similar to c's scanf("%s",string); , which also stops inputting to a string after it encounters the first space. it's odd that line input doesn't display this property, though.

Yeah, it's on purpose, qb has 2 different behaves, depending on if inputing from files or console, fb acts the same way on both -- stopping at white-spaces to separate the items read.

Angelo said he may change it, i won't do it myself, sorry.
