I just tested the latest (4.9) Turbo, and I still get the same results
on QXL (see below) and even worst (arythmetic overflow when executing
PARSER_TASK) on the Q60...
Here is what I did:
- Turbo Toolkit v3.28 (the SMSQ/E version) is loaded at boot time
- I Unzipped the Turbo 4.9 archive into ram1_
- I set DATA_USE ram1:PROG_USE ram1
- I write a small "hello world" program:
100 OPEN #3,"con_512x256a0x0"
110 CLS #3
120 PRINT #3,"Hello world !"
130 REPeat Loop
140 IF INKEY$(#3,-1)=CHR$(27) THEN EXIT Loop
150 END REPeat Loop
160 CLOSE #3
- I execute PARSER_TASK
And the parsing stops after "100 OPEN #"
Doing the EXACT same thing under Minerva (running on UQLX)
gives a proper result (i.e. the parsing is successful)...
So what did I do wrong Doctor Phoebus ? ;-)
What I _think_, is that Turbo is unable to cope properly
with the SBASIC semi-compiled tokens...
QDOS/SMS forever !
