Hi Dilwyn and others, I just resubscribed. Due to sheer good luck, I was a passenger in a car accident a while ago and bumped my noggin. While I'm convalescing, I decided to do some QL programming, after leaving from the scene about five years ago. I think it'll help my short term memory - I'm a bit fuzzy.
I decided a good programming challenge would have the old grey matter working right in no time! Right now I'm debating what to write, as I'd like to share it with the community when I'm done - yay for free software! Okay, so it'll only be a SuperBASIC program, but it's something and it's easy for others to play with. Details in a new thread I'll start when I've got a better handle on what I'd like to do (I'm still just trying to remember the finer points of SuperBASIC, and can't find my paper SB and TK2 manuals ANYWHERE!) but one of the ideas is a decent air traffic control sim.
