Nice to know. Since all of the most devastating bugs seems to have been fixed, I think I'll send 1.0.2 and try it out a bit. :)

Haha! Just realized something... There is no reason for me to require a comma. In the next version, I will make it so that you can do a simple "A?B?C" to 'and' conditionals and "A??B??C" to 'or' them.  That should be more intuitive.  So now there really will be boolean operators!

Also, a bug regarding short-circuiting a chain of ORs (or NORs). Omitting parentheses around the inline if statement chain somehow results in the first line inside the If statement being parsed as if it's at the end of the If statement line. For instance, this:

Code: [Select]
If A?,B
Pxl-On(A,B)
0→A
End

Is parsed like this:

Code: [Select]
If A?,BPxl-On(A,B)
0→A
End

Cool, so I finished the short circuit operators and fixed the bugs involved with them hopefully.  If any of you are familiar with C, these are the "&&" and "||" operators.

Its really easy to use.  Instead of doing:
Code: [Select]
If A=3 and (B=6) and (C=7)
You can do:
Code: [Select]
If A=3 ? B=6 ? C=7
Likewise, "or" would be replaced with "??".  Those spaces I added aren't needed, but you might want to add them if it becomes hard to read.  I'm not sure if this yields a size optimization, it probably depends on the expressions, but it definitely has a speed optimization because it will skip checking the rest of the conditions as soon as one is found that allows the skip to occur (called short circuit evaluation).

Have the major bugs in 1.0.X been fixed in 1.0.3?

It seems like it.  I've only gotten bad flash maybe once and after running thepenguin's archive fixer haven't had any since ;D

Yeah, the serious bugs were fixed in 1.0.2 actually.  The "major" bug in 1.0.2 was just a language thing for pointers, nothing serious.

So for all intents and purposes 1.0.3 is stable? That's good news, 1.0.1 made me drool. A lot. It was messy. And my friend laughed at me.

But it was worth it! :D

...so you got the malware? :P

Baaack on topic, yep, from what I can tell from the bug reports thread, 1.0.3 is pretty stable. I should upgrade sometime.

There shouldn't be any malware in that link....it's a simple url redirection service.

But yes, as far as I can tell with minimal testing of my own, 1.0.3 is running well, with any crashing being my fault, not axe's :P

Out of curiosity, about the dereferenced labels: Since (LFOO)() is the same as using FOO(), can you put constant pointers into the first parentheses to call shell and TI-OS subroutines (like (E0000)() to reset your RAM)? Because if so, that will be REALLY cool! :)

yes.  However, when you load arguments, you aren't loading them the way that the OS routines want them as (they usually want them in registers, you'll be loading them into the stack and/or HL solely) so to load arguments for them you'll have to inline some assembly.  Unless of course the routine doesn't expect any arguments, or just one in HL :P
