Very nice man --- to be able to color the text as I wish is a luxury indeed
not everybody codes the same way -- I have only one wish more -- I would like to distinguish on single quote comments versus double quote comments -- this would allow to really highlight important parts of a program -- for instance where data has to be entered . But I could live with this for sure !!!!
One comment on program 'end' it does not revert to the text , but a screen of indeterminate state sometimes rubbish, somtimes black . It reverts after one key stroke but it is a little confusing .
But ---- outstanding work thanks a great deal , being free of the DOS restaints is like breath of fresh air .
I have used Basic in one form or another for more years than I can remember it is an invaluable tool ( but it makes no money ) so it is not supported --- and yet so many learn from this --- I think it should be a mandatory high school course -- not for games but as an analytical tool
