some odd bug that makes basic almost useless

Open wdthompson opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

I thought I was losing my mind, it works for other people I have found a quite cumbersome work-around

LOAD /bbcbasic.bin RUN . /some/path/to/some.bas ----- this will work, nothing else will So you have to *bye and do this all over again for some other bas ie (errors are) LOAD some.bas No such variable LOAD . some.bas Type mismatch If I replace LOAD with RUN the errors are the same

mos 1.04rc1 I don't know how to get basic version

And I did a update to console8 current, still the same (both mos and vdp)

Stupid me,, now I see, the filename has to be enclosed in quotes..." " LOAD "some.bas" ... this works OK Maybe in the FAQ?
