Hi,
I'm trying to set up a richtextbox to behave like the text
area in a web browser, i.e. no caret, and a cursor that
changes depending on what it's hovering over.
I've been setting the cursor by testing the "Selection"
properties of the text the cursor is over. This requires
setting the SelectionStart property, which causes the
caret to move. Ugh!
I tried using the user32.dll hideCaret function in an
attempt to remove the caret. This works inconsistently,
even when I place hideCaret calls all over the place.
Grrrr!
Is there an elegant solution to removing the caret?
Perhaps if I could control the caret color...
Any suggestions?

This may help, I have not tested it on VB.NET http://www.vb-helper.com/HowTo/nocaret.zip
Uses the HideCaret API function. Unfortunately, Visual Basic restores the
caret frequently. Subclass and hide the caret whenever the TextBox gets
message WM_PAINT or &H100E (whatever that is).

<a href="" onmousedown="setTimeout('status=\'Hide\'',5000)"
onmouseover="window.status='Hide'; return true"> send link </a>
I use this for hidding link path in status bar.
This is working fine but if u click "fast" many times on same link you can
easy read path link and variables. I try to change timeout time but no
effect.
Is there a better way to hide/encrypt this, without to removing status bar.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
