Well, I hope everybody out there has had better luck that I have in running Turbo BASIC. I STILL don't have working versions of the compiler and runtime system, though Howard Chu is making one more attempt to send me good files. (Owen Alexander, I may have been hasty in saying I did not need you to send me your copies...) Also, I wonder if it is just my copy of the Interpreter or is there a serious bug in the official copy: Mine seems to work, but when I ran a program that did some simple math like computing 2^(-1/12), it bombed with an error message "Error 11 - Overflow". Also, simple things like EXP(.5) threw it for a loop. Has anybody else found problems like these or do I need a new copy of the Interpreter file also? -John S.
