Re: [M100] Variable Concordance - MTVarConcor
I was curious about that. I could easily modify this utility to deal with a control z.I'll probably post an update to MTVarConcor along with the other two I recently developed (MTLineRef and MTRenum). I'll try to do that before the weekend. Methinks it would be admirable goal for the programs to accept anything that the M100 accepts.

The last line of your "Eliza.bas" file seems to make line 100 of the code very unhappy. It seems to be an 0x1a character and then a bunch of question marks. If you delete that line of the input file, the program is parsed successfully.= --- Right you are! The EOF problem; I should have looked a little more carefully. Thanks for the tip, and thanks to Lloyd for the program (and Mtlineref) ! m
