Nvm the idiot that wrote this. Sigh. What I get for trying out the
/free. Apparently to do the DSPLY I have to code
Dsply '' ' ' Result;
Heh.. incidentally, this is the way that DSPLY has always worked... the
variable/literal in factor1 is just displayed on the screen. Factor2 is
pretty much always blank (Yeah, I know, it has a purpose -- but I never
use it, so I don't remember what the purpose is) The result field is a
variable that you can request input into, and will cause the program to
stop and wait for you to type something.
The only difference in /FREE is that you specify factor1 after the
op-code, and have to use '' as a placeholder for the fields that you
aren't specifying.
I agree that the following code is really ugly and awkward:
DSPLY '' '' myfield;
Since I only use DSPLY for proof-of-concept programs anyway, I usually use
the factor1 only (DSPLY myField;) and then look at the joblog to see what
it said...
