I think there are a lot of new bugs in the ABasiC/1.1 combo. The old renumber bug that happened occasionally under 1.0 happens regularly under 1.1 (replace the file and wait for the drive to stop before you renum)! It really doesn't matter to me because as soon as I get an official copy of AmigaBASIC instead of the demo I have now, I'm throwing ABasiC out the window. Microsoft makes it look like a dinosaur (sp?)

Jon, Until you get your AmigaBasic, be sure to use the FULL syntax on the renumber command with ABasic……I've never had a problem when using the full syntax. AmigaBasic is nice, but there are a few things I miss in the graphics area that ABasic did so well….(drawmode for instance). -sigh- best regards, Rick Sterling MTS

Got news for you. At least with high line numbers, RENUMBER with all the parameters crashes the system under 1.0. I wrote a little program to properly printout my highly structured (read: lots of indentation) basic code and wanted to change the line numbers to 60000+. I had to use ED to change them.
