I'm afraid that won't work because HTMLview can't view PDF. But you could probably show the PDF using Run()...

This is a reqtools.library limitation. It doesn't support a maximum string length when in numerical mode.

Btw, as a workaround for getting the IP address without requiring an Internet connection you could use UDP. This is a connectionless protocol so it won't try to establish any connection before you try to send or receive something. So you could just do: CreateUDPObject(1, 80, "8.8.8.8", #UDPCLIENT) D...

When using -forceflush Hollywood will flush all output to stdout after each new line so it's definitely possible to capture this and redirect it to an output window while the program is still running. But I'm not sure if UltraEdit supports this at a...
