Is there a way to 'uncomment' (I don't know how you would express this in english, what I mean is 'mark as comment') a larger group of lines in basic source code other than preceding each single line by an asterix?

Is there a way to continue basic code on the next line, like it can be done in ubix shell scripts by terminating a line with ''?

Hi,
well I don't know of any way to perform what you need, but,
for your first question: you can always copy parts of your basic code to another more user freindly editor which will comply to your needs even on windows like graphic vim and probably many more.

for your secopnd question you can alway concatenate your statements and use variables containing long strings so I don't really see a problem.

Hope this helps,

Roy R.

There is no block comment in BASIC.

If you don't mind some ugly code, you could do this to skip around a block of code:

blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah
GOTO OVERTHERE
blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah
OVERTHERE:
blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah

Hey Kenneth, have you been peeking at my code? (ref: blah blah blah)[:D]
