Re: A86: Re: Assembly Studio 86 available
:) all you would have to do is have it check the last row(s) since a return
(chr(10)+chr(13)) is pressed and then reset the row counter...and it wouldnt
be that bad how you say where the cursor would be jumping around. it would
take a split-second to do it and it would still capture the keystrokes.
anyway you said it CAN'T be done but it can be done just you dont wanna do
it that way
