I'm sorry Tarquin, this version not only fails on SMSQ/E with the same
problems as before, it also fails on version JM QDOS. The error
message is At Line 400 Not Found.
To make sure I am not doing anything wrong, since the instructions
don't conform to what appears on screen, here is what I did.
It first of all asks me which drive contains this demo. I enter FLP1_,
then the program stops with the error message Not Found. On version JM
QDOS the error message seems to be in black ink on black paper, i.e.
the window outline comes up with no text in it, pressing a key stops
the program.
I've also tried entering the filename, being careful to specify
underscore or period in case that's what's expected, i.e. tried both
FLP1_hbdemo.htm and flp1_hbdemo_htm (Info-unzip unzips all files with
underscores, but renaming them doesn't seem to have made any
difference). The program never even gets as far as pressing B or C for
convert or browse.
I was hoping to write a short review of this program for QL Today, but
can't even get it started!
BTW, your site says it's 21K download, it's over 30K in fact.
Suggestion for new facility: pass the filename of a html file to be
viewed as an option command parameter, to allow it to be used via
FileInfo 2 for viewing local html files, e.g.
EX FLP1_HB_EXE;'FLP1_hbdemo.htm'
or add a command switch such as -b and -c to view/convert?
