Can someone here post a working Buffer string with a valid noone ?
Basically buffer_part1" + "buffer_payload" + "buffer_part3" + UNIX_TIMESTAMP + NONCE

You need this params:
- "block": This is the next block number to generate... you will not use it
- "version": This is the PascalCoin core version. If in future it changes... you would need to develop a new GPU miner... check that allways is 1
- "part1" : This is a Hexa string, you must convert it to RAW and store to a buffer called "buffer_part1"
- "payload_start": This is the miner name included in the payload when mining. You can ADD characters (only from ASCII from 23 to 255). Store it in a buffer - "buffer_payload"
- "part3" : equal to part1
- "timestamp": This is the server timestamp. You must use allways a timestamp equal or higher than the server... so... be synchronized
- "target_pow": This is a hexa string with the PoW target you must to generate
- "target": This is the target in original format. You will not use it.
Then, your GPU miner, must do this:
Create a buffer with:
"buffer_part1" + "buffer_payload" + "buffer_part3" + UNIX_TIMESTAMP + NONCE
(UNIX_TIMESTAMP and NONCE are 32bits unsigned integers, saved in LITTLE ENDIAN)
Make a Double SHA256 and save it to "buffer_pow"
Check if "buffer_pow" is lower or equal to "target_pow" provided by server in "miner-notify"
If NO, then create a new buffer changing NONCE or UNIX_TIMESAMP (or also, adding valid ASCII chars to buffer_payload), and check again
If YES: Submit a "miner-submit" like example 4... and check if you win
REMEMBER: buffer_payload only accepts ASCII chars from 32 to 254, must start exactly than "payload_start" param, and can be length max of 255 bytes.
NOTE: PascalCoin.exe will provide the miner name at "payload_start" plus a number indicating which client is mining. If there are 2 clients, and Miner name is "MyMiner" first will have "MyMiner1" and second "MyMiner2".
THAT'S ALL!!!
