But then they are null characters? Reading the file on a binary level is as low as you can go.

OK thank you. I am slightly out of my comfort zone with this, but that is a good thing, it is nice to learn new things. I will keep at it.

Thanks, also ingenious but still giving me NUL Characters and stopping after RIFF. I will keep looking at the code you provided though thanks.

Wow that is ingenious and way beyond my knowledge level. However, the first script did seem to gather useful results. Looks like a bunch of Hex characters. So I guess I would have to convert them somehow. (I am looking into this now) I set Let>BYTES_TO_ANALYSE=100 0: ARRAY_OF_CHARACTERS_1=52 0: ARRA...

Sure. Here you go:

Unescaping won't work, I think. As mentioned, cannot read the file past the first word.

Hi all, I am trying to read a file and I can only get the first word, and even that doesn't match when I try to use it in and IF statement. I think this is due to special characters in the file which in Notepad++ for example they show as NUL SUB NULNULNULNUL etc. Trying to paste any of the file here...

Just to point out though that in my case, I ended up leaving the URL as https and then followed the instructions here: https://www.mjtnet.com/blog/2012/05/18/how-to-do-an-https-request-without-installing-all-of-openssl/ Basically, means that you have to have the 2 files: libeay32.dll ssleay32.dll In...

Changed the url from https to http and it works in both versions now.

Much later... Thanks for this it saved me hours of fiddling.

Haha I just saw I had already posted the same too.

In my current project I have now made the python code run as sub processes.

Nice one. If you get a min, can you show how you did this?

Thanks JRL. No need for them to see it. I move it and zip it. And for this I can use system vars etc.

Quick question: Do any of the system vars get expanded when used in this option? i.e. %AppData% I am guessing not...

Thank you, Marcus. :-) Indeed, setting compile options to /LOGFILE=C:\Users\Phil\Desktop\support.log made a log for me :-) Great stuff, so I know it works now and why it was not being written. I did search a lot and could find no clear indication that the settings work from compiled scripts, so this...

Hi Dorian, If you've already successfully logged compiled scripts then we're part way there. No I haven't this is my entire question. :-) I cannot get the logfile to be created when running a compiled script. Thanks for that. Unfortunately, this is all pretty much as I have it already. I have used i...

Hi guys, I am sorry but I fear you have both missed my point here. (My fault I am sure). IF>%writesuplog%=True As code, works perfectly to execute what is inside it. I have been using this method for 15+ years, no issues. I thought I had already mentioned that I have compiled with: LOGFILE=%SCRIPT_D...

I have found a few very old threads about this and would like to ask a quick question about logging from a compiled script. I already understand that the log file can bet set like this: Let>LOGFILE=%SCRIPT_DIR%\support.log And that log file writing can be turned on and off with this (1=on 0-off): Le...

Hi Phil,

...and how other users deal with it.

Mostly by cursing.

Been dealing with this for a few years.

Hi JRL,

Thank you for this. There are some great points there. I will try to go through this in detail after the weekend.
