5. Fix bug in VUE where nulls did not show up as @ after yank /jdm

 

6. Fix bug in compilation of PROGRAM statement which caused trailing zero on minor version to be ignored (e.g. 1.20 was being treated as 1.2)

 

1. Fix two bugs in INPUT RAW. One caused hard-to-explain results when inputting different variable sizes within the same program. The other was a limitation of 512 bytes before memory started getting overwritten. Now there is no particular limit to how much data can be input in one operation (i.e. it just depends on the size of the variable you pass.)

 

2. GOTO.LIT 1.0(102) fixes a problem with GOTO statements within CMD/DO files where the label was not found if it had a comment on the line.

23 Sep 1999: Version 4.5A(701)-2

1. Enhance XPAINT.SBR to automatically correct an ideosyncracy in PAINT LIT files making them incompatible with Mode devices.

 

2. MIAME.INI option OPTIONS=EXITWAIT now causes A-Shell to wait for any key prior to doing an automatic exit due to the -e command line switch. Since AMOS.SBR uses the -e switch to make the child process automatically terminate, this switch can be useful for making sure you are able to see the output of the command run within the subroutine before it exits. (This is mainly of use under Windows, where the child process window would disappear.) Note that the switch is ignored when quiet mode is on.

 

3. DIR.LIT 1.5(122) now supports 3 new switches:

 

/N causes the file names to be omitted, leaving just the totals.

/MIN:n causes files smaller than n blocks to be omitted.

/MAX:n causes files larger than n blocks to be omitted.

4. SET.LIT supports the /? switch to display a list of options.
