Run programs FROM VanTerm!
-By Mark Devlin
These .LST files are to be MERGEd with the program
VanTerm. Since I don't have any of the versions above 7.1,
I cannot guarantee that these will work with the later (or
earlier) versions. If they don't, then looks like I gotta
get the newest version, right? :)
So, now how to put them in the program!
1) Use the FIND option from GFA Basic and search for:
If Menu(0)<=40
2) Then move down to the next line, ON MENU (I think) GOSUB
... Delete that line, and keep the cursor there!
3) MERGE the file ON_MENU.LST here...
4) Select NEW(!) but click on CANCEL! This will take you
to the start of the program.
5) Select FIND again, and enter:
Menu Data
6) You should see something like:
' Menu Data
If so, great...now go down to the SECOND Data statement
and delete that line, keep the cursor where it is
(again)
7) Now MERGE the NEW_DATA.LST here.
8) Go to the END of VanTerm, and MERGE RUN_PRG.LST.
Now SAVE the program. If all went well, when you run
it, you should get an extra menu choice under FUNCTIONS (RUN
PROGRAM)...select it, and voila'! You can now run *SOME*
programs! I tried it with a couple programs (one was the
SAMPLE.PRG on the LANGUAGE DISK)...I only have 512K, so I don't
know how great it is with 1+ megs (be a lot nicer, I'm sure).
Well, enjoy!
