Ok, I understand now I think CLng and CSng where 'aliases' of main
functions CLong and CSingle.

But CString is an 'alias' of CStr, not the main function, so the other
way around, therefor you didn't remove Cstr, is that what you are
saying?

Yes we did apparently...

Look at the attached screenshot..
I marked -with my mouse- all the full lines of text you see in there
except the last one "Main.ControlLed("EIB", "On")

The last letters of "byte" are not back colored purple, even though I
have selected them.
It does this with all lines having comments in them

It's due to the fact that the font of the comments are different
size/type as the rest I guess, this is the default Ubuntu type theme.

You are right, getting better...
