You could just write and then it's much clearer and easier to read the code and understand what it's doing.

Richard is right. The program is working exactly as it should.

Have you profiled it? Ah I hadn't done that yet. Thanks very much for the suggestions, especially the very nice detailed explanation about FNdist. And also thank you for reminding me about the cross reference utility, I have to admit that I had forgotten to use it. I need to remember to do that mor...

Hello, I haven't done much BASIC programming for a while, so for fun, today I adapted one of my JohnsonScript demos for BBCSDL. Here's the original JohnsonScript code: https://github.com/TheGoldenManDenis/JohnsonScript/blob/master/example_programs/graphical/glowballs3 (JohnsonScript is my own simple...

It has never once occurred to me to implement that feature in SDLIDE because I never use it in BB4W (indeed I had completely forgotten that it even existed!). I'm guessing that it's a rarely used facility, but perhaps I'm wrong. I've never tried doing that in SDLIDE, but that's only because I assum...

To be honest I don't see the point of posting these things here if you're not including the source code.

I'm surprised to hear that, Soruk. I remember using GOTO with a variable in a program I wrote for the BBC Micro. Did BASIC on the ARM/Archimedes allow GOTO with variables?

How are you feeling about that?

If you can find a way to add this feature without impacting the speed of the usual for/next loops, you should add the feature.
