Version 1.05 Update
9/3/91
- What's new? -
There were too many things being done to v1.04, so I decided that this latest
fix merited a new version number (even though I never released v1.04 to
anyone).
First off, some keyboard commands have been added. They are:
Space Auto
Return Take
[ Turn on Key on Black
] Turn on Key on White
O Turn off Key mode
L Load a TRexx Script
S Save/Generate a TRexx Script
I Insert
D Delete
C Clear
W Wait
More may be on the way, but I doubt it (yeah, right).
Since its inception, there has been a bug in TRexx that caused the Toaster
Switcher to crash. This occurred when TRexx was called up and then exited
BEFORE the Switcher was run. I searched and searched for where the problem
might be, but could never find it (and since it only happened in that one
instance, I wasn't overly concerned). It didn't help matters any that this
bug did NOT occur at all under KickStart 2.0.
But today I had the Toaster lock up on exit as well as call up. That annoyed
me, so I took another look at it. The only part of my code that I had not
previously modified (for testing purposes) were the Open and CloseLibrary()
calls, since I ASSUMED that they should work fine (being system calls and
such).
Well, so much for that. I was opening the MathBase ROM library, never using
it, and then closing it. For some reason, this seems to have been the problem
(which, I guess, explains why it never crashed under 2.0: since 2.0 supplies
a new MathBase).
Now the program works fine, all the time, which is very reassuring to me (and
should be to anyone using it). Have fun, and I'll TRY to go more than two
days without updating this stupid thing!
