t = DATE PAUSE 500: rem Wait ten seconds PRINT DATE - t
With the correct patch value it should print 10. On an unpatched version of SMSQ under Windoze itll print something like 5! On my QXL2 I found $14 to give the best results, dont ax me why.
Surprise, surprise !
Running that in DOS mode it is correct, but in Windows I get 20, hard to believe the whole is running at half speed. Must test that.
Maybe it is just a divisor to get the scheduler to cycle in 20ms ???
