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.

Is there a trick to having multiple separate source files running?

I just got a try and opened 4 instances of MMB4W  

Theory is when we know everything but nothing work ...
Practice is when everything work but no one know why ;)

Perhaps using 4 different directries (e.g. subdirectories of MMBasic.exe) having the different autorun files and starting the MMBasic.exe (in a different directory) from within them by using MMBasic.exe's path (e.g. "..\MMBasic.exe")?

Don't know, where MMBasic.exe searches it's "autorun" file?

i think it's only one autorun config file , Peter is probably able to set a autorun1 , autorun2 etc ...
The options are in the .option file i your document folder.
I dont know if it's a autorun file somewhere , i never use it ;)

Where can I get b30? I can only find b24

Oops! I need new glasses. You're using b20, not b30.
