Just downloaded the new version, and made an initial try out with a large SuperBASIC program. It all appears OK. The menu is easy to select and the sort is fast. Just one thing appears misleading, which is that the memory report is giving the program size as a minus figure with 8 numbers. This is running under QPC2. So, something in the routine there is amiss, I suspect. -- Malcolm Cadman _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
