<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm reasonably new to FP. Working on 4.05.07 DOS (
dont' ask).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I find that the debugger seems to do things that I
don't expect. I have a series of statements on a @wlf that check the @SK to see
if it was an ENTR or SAVE key and branch off to different routines based on the
key stroke and other combined conditions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If I single step thru the code, the first line
correctly tests the @SK. Subsequent lines don't seem to preserve the @SK
correctly, so the test for a SAVE key does not show as true. I am using the "S"
key to single step thru the code. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have used show statements to prove that the first
line of code is correctly testing the @SK. And I did figure out that the
show"@\...." required a keystroke to clear the message and that entered a new
key stroke into the @SK vlaue. So I quit doing that.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does the "S" keystroke used to single step replace
the @SK value?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If I single step thru this code I wind up
in different code than I do when I execute it without the debugger.
