Hi there,
is there a way to use the carriage return in a PromptOK? Adding \n in the String does not generate an error, but it does not work.

Hello,

Yes, if you need to use a C string (which contains CR (\r), LF (\n), etc.) try using DeQtf() function: (http://www.ultimatepp.org/src$RichText$Utilities$en-us.html)

PromptOK(DeQtf(msg));

If you simply need to show some text and need a new paragraph in QTF format, you can use an ampersand "&" in your text message without using DeQtf(). See "Basic Qtf Codes" section: http://www.ultimatepp.org/srcdoc$RichText$QTF$en-us.html
