Ok.... who stole the "EDIT" command from Color BASIC 1.0???
<laughing> I know I've rewritten line 50 about 50 times now....
I forgot just how much Color Basic was missing, and I started out with a 16k Color Basic machine!
I was one happy coder when I got my Coco 2 64k Extended Color Basic.
And remember guys... there is no "PEEK" function in CB... only "POKE" (for those using a Coco2 to code for the contest).
This has to be the first BASIC program I've written in 25 years!! And I've NEVER written one for 4k!!
Again, here's the link for the CB/ECB Quick Reference Card... ECB stuff is highlighted in gray, CB in white.
You can't use the gray stuff :-)

And when if the deadline to this thing??
