- The basic loader.
-
- I have made this simpel routine from my previously made wimp shell
- library (of course not yet fully completed,... but I'm working on it)
- and the routines I could steel from the demonstration programs. It
- works need and gives an user friendly ring to the desktop for
- developpers (Why din't you make it ACORN??). In future I hope to
- build a real Basic editor multitasking in the ARC unless someone
- beats me to it.
-
- The basic loader sets the system variable Current$Dir to the current
- directory. So when finally you want to save your program press F3
- enter <Current$Dir>.filename and hit return or place the name in a
- REM statement on the first line (REM > <Current$Dir>.filename) to
- save your program.
-
- In basic the function keys are programmed in the following way.
- key 1 : RUN
- key 3 : SAVE ;filename must be at first line of program
- key 4 : QUIT ;after this press return and your back in the desktop
- world
- These keys are set in the !run command file of the !BasicEdit
- application directory so you can change them to your specific needs.
-
- If anyone feels the need to publish the program in any kind of
- magazine please feel free to do so. The program is mostly self
- explanatory. But for more information you can also contact me. (Phone
- : 070-291508 The Netherlands).
