Hi Timo,

Thanks. Compiling your code, here is my output on Windows 7 :

Non standard function, for msvc, so follows ms specs ?

Bug reports / O_BINARY

Last post by Robert - February 17, 2026, 11:52:49 PM

Pelles C .chm documentation states

_setmode function
Declared in:

Code Select Expand

<io.h>
however, the definitions for the _setmode function "mode" parameter arguments

Code Select Expand

_O_BINARYetc.,

are not in

Code Select Expand

<io.h>but, instead, are located in

Code Select Expand

<fcntl.h>
The <io.h> header should

Code Select Expand

#include <fcntl.h>

I have no idea how to do that. Besides, I thought Pelle was looking for something to do.

This capability would make it easier locating variables in large multi-file projects and might even help to reduce the number of variables described or defined.  I do love your editor's 'find in files' feature though. 

Perhaps a new Add-In for collect some info from an object files ?
Just do it yourself ?

EDIT: also tag-files contains useful info ?

A user selectable (on or off) editor feature to display the status of variables.  Ideally the feature would show whether a variable is local, global, static, described in this file or another file, etc.

Feature requests / Enhanced editor suggestion

Last post by PhilG57 - February 14, 2026, 05:58:31 PM

I often mess around with existing code written years ago, often for systems other than Windows.  It would be helpful to me if the editor would show which #ifdef/#else/#endif paths were active.  This might be done by highlighting, or not, the appropriate code sections.  Sometime I run into multiple, nested #ifdef's and sorting it all out is a big pain.  Thanks.
