OK. Here's a question for all the Rainbow/Code Blue users out there:
Is anyone using Brief (successfully) under Code Blue? Brief is an
incredible editor. Probably the best I've ever used. So, since I
use it one of my jobs, I thought I'd get it for my Rainbow in my
"other" job.
Well, I installed it on my system without a hitch. I can
do just about everything I normally do when I use a PC. Except for
two things: I can't display more than 25 lines, and I can't type
more than a single long line of text or quick-cursor around the
file. I can live with the first item. I can't live with CB reporting
"Run-time error R6003 - Integer divide by 0"!! This is totally
unacceptable. So, what am I doing wrong? I've never encountered
this problem elsewhere using CB. I can autorepeat a key with no
problem. If I try typing in a normal fashion, boom! If I try to
Cntrl-Page Up or Cntrl-Arrow around, boom!
Has anyone else had this problem? Any solutions? I've tried
various configurations, command line switches, different start-ups of
Code Blue, and I've even run memory diagnostics. Nothing. Nada.
For note, the system is: a 100+ with a 33MB drive, V20 chip/EPROMs,
8087, and 896K. I tried CB/Brief on a bare bones 100B and it crapped
out there also so I didn't strip my system down to test it.
If you can help me out, e-mail or phone to the address or number below.
Thanks in advance,
Alan
