I seem to have had a larger than normal number of bugs in the 3.5.0 release of MM Edit.
This update fixes a problem which caused grief when switching between TCPIP and serial connections.
As usual the attached ZIP has a replacement TKN file or you can download the full program from my website.

I still need to update the User Manual - I am working on it.

Some icons are hidden when in VT100 mode.
They will all reappear when you switch to ASCII or HEX mode.

Hi Jim,

Firstly thank you for your continued work on MM edit.

Been using it for ages now and find it to be invaluable.

Minor bug report in 3.5.1. If it's been fixed in 3.5.3 apologies, but I've got a funny feeling I've come across this in the past too.

space$ isn't recognised as a MMB function. It's listed as spaceS$ in the syntax help. No biggy but had me scratching my head for a few minutes thinking I was doing something wrong lol.

Hi Jim,

Another minor issue here:
DO:A$=INPUT$(1,#1):LOOP WHILE LOC(#1) <> 0

For some reason the LOOP WHILE is not recognised as a command either.

That one caught me out as well. I have fixed it in the master copy but I forgot to add it to the latest updates. It will be there next time - promise.

It is the '#' which is upsetting the syntax highlighting. If you put the cursor in the word and hit F1, the syntax help appears so it is only the highlighting that has a problem.

I think it is because the '#' gets used as a comment marker in some languages.
I will see if I can tame the beast. I do like the highlighting to work correctly - it's supposed to be there to HELP the users.

The # is optional but I prefer to use it.

The attached ZIP has the updated dat files with SPACE$ fixed.

Replace the 4 files in your data folder.

Help/About will tell where the folder is located in your PC.

Thanks for drawing the error to my attention.
