Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

If from the command line I enter: ? "Pin(34)=";pin(34)

I get the expected result printed: "Pin(34)= 1" (because I have made pin 34 an output have set PIN(34)=1)

But when I set a string to that command: t$="? \qPin(34)=\q;pin(34);"

then EXECUTE t$

I get the expected output printed, but followed by "Error : Unknown command"

Execute isn't intended to be run from the command prompt. I'll block it in a future release

Ok. Was just using it to test, anyway. In a program, it works:

> list
Option escape
SetPin 34,dout
Pin(34)=1
t$="? \qPin(34)=\q;pin(34);"
Execute t$
> run
Pin(34)= 1
