I've had a really quick look and noticed, as mentioned elsewhere, that your number of procs is wrong. If the average length of the new procs is greater than 7, then you must use the formula as detailed. If the average is 7 or less, then the individual lengths is fine. I also see a comment about A1 b...

Maybe post some of the stack tidying code you are running to clear off at the end of a procedure? With a bit of context as to what is or should be on the stack from parameters fetching etc?

I had a quick look in the DIY Toolkit source. Volume V has more_asm which displays a file on screen one page at a time. The following code can be found in there.... * * Get the file name parameter as a string or a name * get_name tst.b 0(a3,a6.l) Is the value set? bne.s value_set If so, use GTSTR to...

In a Procedure, only, you can leave any old crud on the stack when you return, for a Function, you must clea...

I sent you some HTML files today, hopefully, all nicely tidied up and properly formatted etc. It's been a while since I had a...

There used to be a pretty good PDF import extension for Open Office! It seems to have been dropped from recent versions but I wonder if it still kicks about! I think the PDF import into Libre/Open Office imported each page as a bitmap, not as the original text. I tried it once, and that was enough!...

I've been attempting to understand Thing programming for years, and to find some examples etc that were documented, but with no luck.

Good luck in your quest!


Cheers,
