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.

Forum Index : Microcontroller and PC projects : MMEDIT2 - printing/display bug..

If you have lines with multiple commands such as:

Print "Hello":Print "World"

First command is colour-syntaxed and printed, but commands after the first : are not capitalized and remain black and white. The printout reflects the display.

NOT a criticism, just a comment.

MMEdit2 version 0.9.1

If you have a space after the colon, all is well
I have made a change to the next beta which doesn't need the space but I am not sure if there are any unforeseen side-effects.

Please keep the comments coming, that is what beta releases are for.

I should have a uMite running soon and then I can do a few changes to MMedit to suit.

You are absolutely correct. If I put a space after the colon, the syntax changes to what it should be colour-wise and is auto-capatalized.

I have a lot of multi-command lines though, so I ain't adding all those spaces in.

The current stable version of MMedit I am using, which is 3.3.7(full editor, but no colour printing) does not care about no space after the colon - the example in my first post is correctly formatted and coloured.

Does not bother me - was just mentioning it.

Just goes to show that all is not always "black and white"
