- Thanks Paul, I'll start adding the space. Do you, or does anyone, know of
- the existance of some sorce code on a small editor that I might be able to
- down load. Like the editor in PB/TB ( same style ) or that could be
- altered to match. I spend all my editing time in PB, why should I learn
- another set of commands when I want to write a letter.
-
- Thanks again

- Hello again!
- Regarding "bnk...", I have problems with my keyboard not typing
- what I want too! Sometimes it gets so bad that I have to use a
- spell checker! I guess they just don't make keyboards like they
- used to! :-)
- Regarding the no (int 21h, fun. 09h) printing without one or more
- blank lines at the end of the pb file...
-
- Eeeek! Its a BUG!
-
- Yes, I tried a program similar to the one I uploaded previously at work
- (i.e. on a geniune IBM PS/2 50z) and when it was compiled to memory
- (I never did try an exe file)...
- a) With one or more blank lines at the end of the *.bas file everything
- went smothly*.
- b) Without the blank line the assembler program never printed.
- *By `smothly' I mean it printed the text it was suposed to. As you
- already know, it doesn't print the text at the right spot on the
- first try, but thats a seperate issue.
-
- Any comments from Spectra R&D???
-
- On a seperate seperate issue, I was able to get the little test
- program up and running with minimum difficulty, as a result of the
- advice I've been receiving here! (I hope I'm not the only one)
- Thanks again!
-
- P.S. Mr. Zale: I just read one of your posts about you adding better
- $LINK error messages to 2.10- Great idea!

- I ormally do not end with a blank line, or even a carriage return. Quite often,
- however, I will $Link in OBJ code at the end, rather then the beginning, of the
- file with an end before it so the debugger won't go off into la-la land by
- tracing into the obj code. Of course, when 2.10 comes out and you are doing
- this through an external debugger, it won't be a problem. Don't read this as
- the internal debugger will be gone; it is still there and better than ever.

-
- I have used PBINST to define the following:
- Ctrl Left Arrow = begin block
- " Right " = end "
- " Down " = copy "
- " Up " = move " I think it is reasonbly intuitive.

- I have a couple of questions that I hope someone has the answers. I was trying
- to use ARRAY SORT on a 2 dimension array and found myself getting nowhere fast.
- I have an array of names and addresses eg. nm$(x,y) is it possible to use ARRAY
- SORT to sort the entire array based on any given field. For example can I sort
- the array based on city, state etc. If so, what am I missing. If you compile
- programs to chain programs, if you compile the main program as $FLOAT PROCEDURE
- you can then compile some of the chain files as PROCEDURE and some as EMULATE
- and all is ok but if you compile the main file as EMULATE you can't....any idea
- why this won't work? Also is it possible to pass a constant to an OBJ file. I
- have several programs (ASM) that I've written but when I call them I have to
- set a variable and then call. For example. X=1:call sample(x) ---- works ok
- call sample(1) -------- doesn't work Any idea why this is ?

- I will attack the passing the constant first. It is possible to pass the
- constant to the .obj file, but is not recommended. This is because the passing
- methods can change from version to version, and it is best to pass the
- variable. However, you shouldbe able to pass this if you have declared all
- things as integers:
- Defint a-z
- Call sample(1) ' or
- Call sample(1%)
-
- Most likely, your problem will go away if you make the 1 an integer with call
- smaple(1%).
