I have two very minor bugs, and they might not even apply anymore, since I'm still using Axe 0.2.6 :P But just to let you know, AND logic between 0 and -1 seems to be true. In other words:
Code: (Axe BASIC) [Select]
:If -1 and 0
:Disp "Hi!"
:End
will always display "Hi!". The other bug is that I left my calculator on the Axe Select Program screen for a few minutes (stupid of me :P). After it APD'd, I turned it on again, and it still worked, meaning I could still navigate around Axe, but when I quit, it RAM cleared. Probably not important, but just in case.

Also, I've been wondering: What should people call your language? ;D
Code: (Axe) [Select]
or
Code: (Axe BASIC) [Select]
?

I would call it Axe, because there will be perhaps some BASIC ans ASM support later on, which I will call then Axe BASIC and Axe ASM ...
everytime that I was down, you would always come around, and get my feedback on the ground. (modified part from 'Seasons in the sun')

No matter how many errors are bothering you, always try to stay rel-Axe!

The HoMM project will be resumed as soon Axe 1.0.0 will be released!
Projects:
Code: [Select]
HoMM:   [==--------]    Project 'resumed': I'm suffering overwhelming new ideas being popped up in my dreams :P
tiDE:   [----------]    Explored and understood the main part of the code: just started writing a Tokenizer.

-1=signed version of 255 in 8 bit, or 65535 in 16 bit. So, technically, since it's not 0, it's a 1.  So, the problem seems to be with and itself. Try 255 and 65535 explicitly, and see what happens.

Oh, I know why it's happening.
" and " is an 8-bit AND only. It only AND's the LSB, putting the MSB of the first argument into the MSB of the answer.
So "-1 and 0" simplifies to "EFFFF and 0", which simplifies to "EFF00", since only the LSB is operated upon.
What you need to do is use the 16-bit version, which, for AND, is the statplot dot. (Looks like a raised single pixel, pretty much).

No biggie, but the title of the new Commands.htm still says Axe 0.4.3. Make sure to keep that updated! :P

Not to be picky, but in the documentation on page 17 about the Pong game explanation, you forgot the r in "first". :P

Thanks for those, I'll get them fixed.  I have hardly been able to use the internet yet so I don't know how often I'll be able to post for the next few days.

Yeah I saw on fb, I guessed you would most likely not get online for an extended period of time. Btw, will version 0.5.0 be the last version before final release?

I don't know which you intended, but the commands list says float{ is mapped to iPart(, while the actual application maps it to fPart(.

I'm not sure if it's my calculator that's the problem, but lately, it's been running into several weird glitches.

For example, when I'm trying to compile a program, it'll occasionally give me an error.  It zooms down to the end of the program, and for some inexplicable reason, a whole bunch of nonsense symbols were tacked on to the end.  

Also, once, I kept trying to run my program (no shell), like this
Code: [Select]
asm(FALL1which kept returning this
Code: [Select]
asm(FALL1
            Done
without actually executing the code (which worked fine for the past several weeks)
But when I go back up to highlight it, it turns into a weird combination of symbols, like this
Code: [Select]
Sin(A????????rref((or something vaguely like that)
I had to reset my RAM, but it hasn't happened again.

I have OS 2.53 MP, and Axe 0.4.4.

I've attached my source, in case it's something I'm doing.

My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.

Mhmm, I remember often getting the Asm(prgmFALL1 Done thing before. It wouldn't even bother executing anymore ASM program from the home screen. In one case, I fixed this with a RAM clear then re-compiling the program. I never got the Sin(A????????rref(, though (although maybe I did and I didn't notice). I'M not too sure if this is an Axe bug, as often it was the result of bad Axe code I created.

IN any case, make sure to backup frequently, in case!

By the way, are you the guy you did the Falldown clone with the cat on ticalc.org? I liked it. You should post about your new projects or release if you get any in the future :)

Okay, that was quick.
I was still editing my post...
That was kind of scary... but in a good way ;D.

Ah, so it is probably my fault.
Still, it ran fine under Axe 0.4.3, and I added only minimal tweaks...
Hmm.

Yeah, that was me - I'm flattered that you like it.
Although, really, it didn't seem like a big enough project to be posting about - there are lots of Falldown clones available, and mine really isn't original.

Yeah I happened to check new posts and opened this topic ;D

As for the error, this is something that Quigibo might check, then. I think he's slowing down updates, though, so the next update may take a long while until it comes out. Otherwise, someone could maybe check the code. I would help but I haven't used Axe much lately D:

And I see, well feel free to post about your other stuff if you feel like it later ^^
