' In This version several problems are fixed and a few new things added.
' ------------------------------------------------------------
' OPEN "_",#_,"COM1:[BAUDRATE [,PARITY [,LENGTH [,STOPBITS]]]]"
' with: BAUDRATE: 110/150/300/600/1200/1800/2400/4800/9600/19200
' PARITY: "N" (no parity), "O" (odd) or "E" (even parity).
' LENGTH: the number of bits (5 to 8)
' STOPBITS: the number of stopbits to use (1 or 2)
' This syntax is exactly the same as in AmigaBasic (between the quotes !).
' This new command opens a file for Input or Output to the serial port,
' and makes it possible to change the parameters for the serial port.
' examples:
' OPEN "I",#1,"COM1:9600,N,7,1" !opens a file for input, sets the serial
' port to 9600 Baud, No parity, 7 bits with 1 stopbit.
' OPEN"O",#1,"COM1:300,O,6,1" !opens a file for output, sets the serial
' port to 300 Baud, Odd parity, 6 bits and 1 stopbit.
' OPEN"O",#1,"COM1:600" !changes to 600 baud - opens a file for output and
' leaves all other parameters to their default values.
'
' - SGET $()/SPUT $() : They do the same as the SGET string /
' SPUT string -commands on the ST, except that they use a string-ARRAY instead of
' a string (On the Amiga a screen can use more than 32K). They work on screens:
' they take (or put) the contents of a whole screen.
'
' - SCROLL dx,dy,x0,y0,x1,y1 scrolls a rectangle in your window.
' f.e.: SCROLL 2,3,10,10,100,100 scrolls the rectangle (10,10)-(100,100) 2 pixels
' to the right, 3 pixels to below, and the second parameter of COLOR determines
' the color of the borders that are scrolled (here left and upper border of the
' rectangle).
'
' - In the FileSelector several things changed:
' - The Up/Down-arrows repeat now for quick file-search without having
' to click many times on the same arrow
' - When you do a diskchange the fileselector is updated if necessary,
' automatically: the user has not to re-select the drive (as you have to do on
' the ST and in other fileselectors on the Amiga).
' - Now GFABASIC also saves an Icon with your sources if you want it to.
' Therefore, the pull-down menu got an extra selection called "Save Icon", short-
' cut is "Right_Amiga_Key + I". Use this to turn this icon-save-option on or off.
' - In the pull-down menu:
' - new entry "Save Icon", with checkmark (such a "V") to show current
' status (save icon / don't save icon)
' - FOR .. NEXT -loops are now not executed when the limit is exceeded from
' the start: f.e.
' FOR i=10 TO 5
' NEXT i
