Hi all,

I just has a brilliant idea! Instead of using the regular VDS parsing
routine and using the commas for the seperator, why don't we use
semicolons and use a different parsing routine which allows unlimited
parameters?

[CodeScript]

I think the problem with more parameters for @LIB() is of a different nature internally (nothing to do with comma or "|" pipe character(shouldn't matter for the script engine as it will parse both in the same way). For each set of additional parameters U allow U should have extra arrays buffers and such things hard coded internally to hold the information and dynamically create the structures from @BINARY() to pass it on to the dll U called as a parameter.
And for each additional parmeter U allow U need more and more of these things because it should be able to pass on the structs etc in all the parameters at the same time to the dll I may be wrong though
And the solution probably lies in having a different more innovative way of creating structs/passing params to the actual dll called reusing the available resources again and again in a almost unlimited manner.
VDS developers may be able to elaborate more on this.

CodeScript is right. VDS isn't limited to the amout of parameters (like the #define function), but to the size of the runtime dll. If you look at some commands like "dialog add", you see they can be over 10 parameters long...

OK, but it was worth a try.
