- This drawer contains programs only suitable for use on
- Amigas with at least 1M of RAM. Such users should use
- these versions in preference to those on disk 1, by
- copying them over them onto a *backup* copy of disk 1.
-
- Users with less than 1M of RAM should not be tempted into
- trying these versions of the programs; believe us, they
- will not work.

- HB.Compiler
- ===========
- This is identical in use to that on disk 1 except that
- it permits the creation of truly stand-alone files
- (cf. page 303). This version can be distinguished
- from the other version by its size (167k), as opposed
- to 97k or so.

- HiSoft BASIC
- ============
- This is an extended version of the editor which has the
- following additional features:
-
- 1. Marked blocks are displayed highlighted.
-
- 2. The behaviour of the cursor at the ends of a line can
- be changed, see End of Line under Preferences. It is
- difficult to explain, just try it and see.
-
- 3. There is a Show Tokens option under Preferences which
- automatically upper-cases BASIC tokens when lines are
- typed in or text files loaded, in a similar way to the
- AmigaBASIC interpreter. When enabled you may notice a
- slight delay after loading text files.
-
- This version of the editor can be distinguished by the
- '+' sign after the release number shown in the Help
- requester.
