Bugs and Stuff
On Issue #14 in the Comal Corner
section, a program LK.TEXTMAKER had a
bug. The corrected version is on
Side 2 of this disk. It is SAVEd
under the name of (LK.TEXTMAKER).
LK.TEXTMAKER is used to make normal
text files out of LISTed Comal
programs. To use the program, do the
following:
1. Write a Comal "program" using
only text and comments (REMs in
BASIC, but // in Comal). The
text will look something like
this:
0010 // This is text.
0020 // This is more text.
0030 //
0040 //Dear Mr. Longfellow,
2. LIST the program of text to disk.
(ex. LIST "TEXT.FILE")
3. ENTER "LK.TEXTMAKER" and then
RUN
5. Specify the correct filenames.
The INPUT file is the name of the
file you LISTed earlier. The
OUTPUT file is the name of the
file that is to contain only the
text.
6. LK.TEXTMAKER will now strip out
all of the line numbers and
slashes. This will leave just
the text in the OUTPUT file.
Now for one more glitch this month.
It seems that the STEINMAN SPREADSHEET
on Issue #15 has a slight bug.
STEINMAN operates fine until you SAVE
a file and then attempt to LOAD it
back in. It seems that the program
is unable to determine the size of
your saved spreadsheet. By running
the program FILE FIX.1XC (which is on
SIDE 2 of this disk), you can correct
any files that have been SAVEd with
the bugged version of STEINMAN.
