INPUT "File to read from: ", infile$
INPUT "File to output to: ", outfile$
OPEN infile$ FOR INPUT AS #1
OPEN outfile$ FOR APPEND AS #2

DO
'Temp$ = ""
'Sep! = 0
'ans$ = ""
'que$ = ""
INPUT #1, Temp$
cnt! = cnt! + 1
Sep! = INSTR(Temp$, "|")

It keeps on going because when you hold down a key, the key simply keeps sending the siginal that it's held down over and over. The BIOS on your computer has a buffer that holds recently pushed keys. What's happening is that the program is reading those buffered key strokes. Like so:

TIMER fuction

How accurate can the TIMER fuction be? I tried INT(TIMER*100) in the following snippet:

Code: Select all

pause:
start! = INT(TIMER * 100)
stp! = start! + waittime!
DO
curnt! = INT(TIMER * 100)
LOOP UNTIL stp! = curnt!
RETURN
and it locks up. I tried using >= but that doesn't change much...
