Evening Marcel, > Could you (and anybody else having increased cursor blink frequency) > run this Basic program? Tell me what values it's printing (47 to 50 is > normal). Ok, managed to get it to run quite happily - couldn't type it in though, too many foibles with the keyboard. Created a file in ~/.wine/dosdevices and loaded it from dos1_ - worked a charm and no problems with the PW or PL procedures.
Anyway, I ran it and the results were : 3 (yes, three!) 50 48 49 43 49 50 50 38 and so on. There were quite a few 50s turned up after about 30 or 40 repetitions, then after a few dozen of those, it started varying again. The first run was a 3 that is ot a typo. I have just run it again and it started with 40, then repeated 50 a few dozen times before I CTRL-SPACEd it. Cheers, Norman. _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
