A-Shell Release Notes Version 6.5.1708.1 (27 October 2021) | ||
1708.1.1 |
USING Expressions on the right side of shortcut operators are now evaluated after the completed expansion of the shortcut operator statement. | |
1708.1.2 |
New auto-defined Macro ABC_SCALE is set to the current SCALE value. | |
MX_FINDFIRST refinement (all platforms): Overflowing the directory processing stack now generates BASIC error 33, stack overflow. Previously it only returned a non-zero status, making it too easy for the calling program to continue running without recognizing the error, leading to incorrect or inconsistent directory scan results. Furthermore, after such an error, the stack was not getting reset, leading to more errors on subsequent multi-level directory scans. | ||

1708.0.7 |
(UNIX) MX_FINDFIRST/MX_FINDNEXT refinement: extend the maximum number of nesting levels from 3 to 20. This was done years ago for the Windows version but somehow overlooked for the UNIX version. |
