Hello from France.
I apologize for my wrong English. I hope you understand me.
I think there is a problem with echo command within a take file between
MS-DOS Kermit 3.14 and 3.15 beta 21
With MS-DOS Kermit 3.14 both the macro Disp and the echo command will
display "Yes" in green (With ANSI.SYS loaded).
With MS-DOS Kermit 3.15 only the macro Disp displays "Yes" in green.
Echo command displays the contents of macro's Ge and No.
ANSI escape sequences are not correctly executed when these sequences are
within a macro inside an echo command.
(See macro and commands hereunder)
; Displays White on Blue
assign No \27[0;1;37;44m
; Displays Green on Blue
assign Ge \27[0;1;32;44m
assign Disp echo {From Macro Disp : \m(Ge)Yes\m(No)}
Disp
echo {From Echo Command : \m(Ge)Yes\m(No)}
Is it a bug or a new feature of 3.15 version ?
I am not able to find any explanations in the MSK315.DOC file.
If it is a new feature, it will be very hard to move my applications under
version 3.15 because there are many commands like :
echo {\27[\m(Line);\m(Column)H\m(Ge)Yes\m(No)}
to put a green "Yes" on defined screen areas
Nevertheless I am very interested by version 3.15 with local variables,
declare arrays, minput, switch, \Feval(), for, while, xif, if else and
other improvements.
