[Gambas-user] Strange behaviour of File.Read

[bill-lancaster via Gambas-user]

I must be missing something - any ideas?
Gambas3.9.2
Components, gb.form, gb,gui, gb.image

This is the code:-

Public Sub Button1_Click()
Dim s As String
  s = File.Load(User.Home &/ "Pictures/PhotoFolder.txt")
  Print s
  Print IsDir(s)
  Print IsDir("/home/bill/Pictures/Family/Visits/2000-07-29")
End

This is the output:-

"/home/bill/Pictures/Family/Visits/2000-07-29"

False
True

Thanks so much for the insight.

IsDir(Trim(s)) still produced False, but I tried saving the path with a
Variant instead of a string and now I get True

Thanks again

The directory string was written from a directory chooser, originally via a
string variable - this is where the quotes came from.
Using a variant produces a string without quotes and presumably without \n
Thanks again

[Gambas-user] textarea won't accept text

[bill-lancaster via Gambas-user]

I'm obviously missing something here but have just added a textarea control
to my form.
I can display text in it from code but can only enter one character.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the ideas, Textarea works in other projects.
A copy of the the offending project is attached.

Meanwhile, I'll see if I can make a simpler version.

Sorry, my mistake.
The textarea control works fine if I don't intercept key strokes.

Thanks again for the responses
