This keyword is, of course, part of Turbo TK code, and returns a null string in SuperBASIC. If a new Turbo TK keyword is neede for home$ I presume this could be added. However, if home$ is just another SuperBASIC keyword Turbo would presumably allow it to be compiled (provided it did not return paramters!).
