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.

When I try to use format$ from the command line, I get

Format specification not found

The g, f or e is important!

I'm not used to being up this early!
