The bit that caught my interest

Quote:- Variables must not be declared with "DIM" anymore! ...  Dim is exclusively used for dimensioning arrays.

Quote:THREADED is not supported ATM.
Aww, when thread is needed it is needed. Since I seldom need it its not a big handicap for now.

Quote:- You may still declare multiple variables of the same data type in one single line. "LOCAL a, b, c AS LONG" is accepted. "LOCAL a$, b AS DWORD, c AS LONG" throws an error, because a$, b and c represent different data types.
Also self-imposed.
