With all due respect to @arachnivore. This seems like another in a long litany of "you're doing it wrong, it should have been done this way!" posts/arguments. We've been down this road quite a number of times, haven't we? (By the way, your technical knowledge and passion on the subject, in...

Ah, very good. Is it in R42?

Hey, @nighthawk1961, I'll have to see what the issue is with R42. And @TomXP411, $0400 probably isn't possible, I don't think the code is even small enough to fit, plus it needs space to build a table. But I'm sure I could change things where it could use a bank that the user specifies rather than w...

Hmm, yeah, if they're checking for F2 with a "reverse-shift-i" though, this could be a problem, hmm...

Just found a bug, if the hi bank is changed (POKE 0,x) after activating, causes a crash. Will fix that.

Also, the RENUM seems to work. I've only done something simple, so far, but I'll test it more thoroughly later with GOTO, GOSUB, ON GOTO, ON GOSUB, and line numbers in quotes. Hmm, don't think I considered line numbers in quotes, where would that normally be valid? edit: Or, I think you mean just m...

having to do a NEW is a relic of loading with ,8,1 and it setting the end of basic pointers. So subsequent commands will give an OUT OF MEMORY error. If a BASIC program is already in memory, doing a NEW and then an OLD should work. Alternatively I could have it load with a BASIC stub and relocate it...

Also, a question... does this work as a shortened command, like reN or rE? Inquiring minds want to know. Not currently, but should be an easy add. I'm not actually extending basic (so it's not runnable from within a BASIC program, but that wouldn't make sense anyway). I'm hooking the IERROR vector,...

Hey all, I just posted a BASIC renumbering utility in the Downloads->Development tools section that I'd like to get some BETA testing done, if you're interested in trying it out. Any feedback and sample programs you can provide would be great!
Thanks!

Hi everyone! If you're interested, please BETA test this BASIC renumbering utility. load with: LOAD"RENUM.PRG",8,1 SYS $A000 NEW then load the BASIC program you'd like to renumber and do RENUM [start [,][increment] It will default to 100 and 10 or to whatever was last specified. It loads t...
