The following is the index for the Pinned Coding Snippets topic with notes from the author of the snippets. In case you need a second opinion, my own (and Deji's) personal, but often useless, commentary is included when you hover over the Description.

|---|
| CLEO Basic Starter | "Ever got tired of always re-writing the same lines for all your new CLEOs? Just copy this..." | gtasearcher |
|---|
| Fancy Camera Movement | "The camera will orbit around the first car you enter. Just another example on how to use (co)sine as well as how you'd perform smooth camera movement." | Deji |
|---|
| Mission Select Script | "Proper way to add mission select script." | Trickstar |

| Placing Objects on a Car | "See the above post for more info." | Deji |
|---|
| Searchlight Creation | "Creates a searchlight at a set point, permanently checks for cars/peds/player and starts following them." | gtasearcher |
|---|
| CLEO Keyboard | "This can be used for user-input, which results in great mods." | Deji |
|---|
| All Possible Actors | "By using some basic coding tricks, you can either find any actor according to specific requirements or inflict an action upon all actors." | Deji |
|---|
| Siggi's CLEO Starter | "Just a quick reply to the old post of gtasearcher..." | Siggi |

| Memory Hacking Coronas | "Use this code to look for a certain corona that you created and want to modify." | Adler |

| Optimized Code Starting | "Since everyone is going on about CLEO Starters and optimizing them, let me post my methods of generally saving bytes and such." | Deji |
|---|
| Optimized Code Starting | "Contrary to what I have stated before... Long strings always save more bytes than short strings." | Deji |
|---|
| Player Task Check | "For people who really want to make sure the player is not included in any task." | Siggi |

|---|
| Writing Newlines to Files | "Sanny doesn't have the ability to replace a sequence of characters with the newline character... And we can't add a newline in the string because that breaks it. So, we gotta use hex..end, and I'll show you how to do it!" | Deji |
|---|
| Typewriter Text | "This time we will make text appear on screen sign-by-sign, like it is written on typewritter." | Silent |

|---|
| Spawn Current Cop | "This is more like an example of how the EXE is programmed to completely ignore the SCM in certain situations." | Deji |
|---|
| Bit Toggle | "Just a little something I was using to test the ped structure for GTAG v2." | Deji |
|---|
| Exponentiation Float or Integer | "As I know there is no opcode that would be raise raise number to given exponent." | fastman92 |
|---|
| Subtraction Money | "This function gets parameter with amount of money to subtract." | fastman92 |
|---|
| Shorstring to Integer | "I wanted to make keyboard where I can type number and next to use it as integer. It wasn`t simply possible, so I decided to create this function." | fastman92 |
|---|
| Display Ped/Car/Object IDs | "Requested by methodunderg in the GTAForums Coding Request Topic." | Adler |
|---|

|---|
| Two Integer Adding and INT Limit | "Integer can store number up to 2147483647 and -2147483647. If you have [too] many numbers and you can check if after adding will be proper result of sum." - Deji's Addendum | fastman92 |
|---|
| Parse an Opcode | "Confusing, eh?" | Deji |
|---|
| Handling of CLEO Global Variables | "I created functions that allow to simply handle CLEO global variables. | fastman92 |
