Hi Roman,

Not sure when this started, or if it's ever been right, but I just noticed this the other day. If in a datfile, you have a comment that is just a URL, it seems to chomp off everything after 'http:'. For example, I have a datfile that has this in the header :

comment http://sid.oth4.com

But in the Profiler 'Show Info' window, the comment is shown as 'http:'.

I have another one that has :

comment "file credits to: http://arcade.hofle.com/"

But this one is displayed correctly.

Just a small thing, thought I'd let you know!

Cheers,

SalmonKing.

Use quotes (") around the comment data. Otherwise // is handled like a C++ style comment and the rest of the line isn't shown.

comment "http://www.test.com" instead of comment http://www.test.com
