I am a new purchaser of PowerBasicCC. I do most of my coding in
Quickbasic45. Two questions.
1) The Basic keywords "STOP' and SYSTEM are missing in the Help description.
These were used frequently to bring programs to a stop right at the
point of failure or to exit to the system in the middle of a program.
Does anyone know why these were dropped and what an approximate equivalent
might be in PBCC?
2) In another forum, a mention was made about 'converters' to convert code
(I presume from earlier Basic) to PowerBasic format. However, I cannot
find any pointers to such converters. Can anyone enlighten me?
Thanks in advance.
