 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

The latest update to MM Edit has a few new features. There is now a Variable report which lists all variables, labels and user functions and the lines in which they are referenced. As code gets changed, there can be variables or labels which are no longer used. This report helps find those variables that are only referenced once which usually means you can dispense with them, saving memory. You can now drag a BAS file and drop it onto the MM Edit shortcut to open MM Edit with that file. If you want to associate BAS files with MM Edit, I have added a crude but effective method. You create a batch file called MMedit.bat and then associate BAS files with the batch file rather than MMedit.exe The batch file can be located anywhere that suit you and it will set the correct start-up folder for MMedit.exe to work correctly. The utility to make the batch file can be found in the 'configure' menu If MM Edit is already open, a second instance of MM Edit will open. This might cause some difficulties with things like the recent files list. It is something I hope to improve in future updates. If you already have version 3.1.7 (5th Jan) or later you can use the attached file to replace MMedit.tkn in your application directory. Users of Vista and above will have to argue with Windows to allow the change. 2013-01-31_032820_MMedit.zip Otherwise, download the full version. Jim VK7JH MMedit MMBasic Help |

Hi Jim, Just tried your new MMEDIT version V3.2.0. That variable list looks really useful for bigger programs. First time I tried it I opened Nick's MAXMAN program from the library (because it had a nice juicy load of variables to report) and it reported them beautifully. It also put in a couple of extras though, i.e. INPUT#1, CLOSE#1 and AS#1 - it must've got excited! The drag and drop works very nicely on my XP system too - another time-saver. Haven't tried the associate .BAS thing yet, but it's not really necessary with the drop-on capability. Well done - more improvement on an already great editor for the MaxiMite! Greg |

Thanks for the feedback, I will have a look at those extras. I will have a few more changes soon: Open the last used file on startup, Remember all your view options, Added show linefeed, User help menu items can refer to a web address. and a couple of others. It will be about a week. Jim VK7JH MMedit MMBasic Help |
