Hi, Is it possibile to extend the 128 byte QL keyboard buffer. Was TYPE_IN an a attempt to do this?

How long i the string in line 194? IIRC, the Ql's keyboard buffer is 128 bytes long... You cannot increase this, AFAIK. I don't think you can clear this. Perhaps a pause after the earlier TYPE_In instructions will leave the system time to clear it.
