In this interview the hostilities flow the other way. I wonder whether the interviewer could have done anything to reprieve the situation.

It reminds me (tenuously) of this famous sketch:

Hi Charles,

thank you for the updated Oxygenbasic.zip. I only checked on Github today because I did not expect this to happen so quickly. Currently, I am trying to revise an older project that uses some macros which involve uppercase and lowercase letters. I think it is quite good that I do not have to change this writing style.

Thanks Roland,

This is a case-sensitivity issue affecting the iif macro in the program

Here is a quick fix:

Code Select Expand

macro iif int(r, a,b,c)
'if A then R=B else R=C
if a
  r=b
else
  r=c
endif
end macro

I will fix this compiler problem properly in the next update.

Hi Charles,

there is a small problem with /demos/Sound/KeyBoardMidi.o2bas. This app runs fine with oxygen.dll 07P10 (version 0.7.0 2024-01-01T14:45:45 32bit), but with the oxygen.dll in progress (version 0.70 2024-03-19T 10:02:07 32bit) I get this error message:

ERROR : not found
WORD:  r
PROC:    createThemenu
COL:      1
LINE:      422
FILE:      main source

This is a strange error message. If I comment out the createThemenu procedure the message happens in a different place. So I think there is something missing with oxygen.dll? Maybe I am using a version that is not up to date?

inc\console.inc provides the low-level stuff. You can deconstruct or override it if necessary:

Code Select Expand

uses console
print "Enter your name: "
string name=ltrim(rtrim(input()))
if name
  print cr
  print "Hello, " + name + "!" + cr
  wait
endif
