What's with "RUN" and "CLS"?

Screen 1
Print "ABC"
Print "DEF"
_Delay 1
Print "XXX"
_Delay 1
Cls
Run   <--- at this point, we start over again.  Right?


So isn't our code actually something like:

Code: (Select All)
Screen 1
Print "ABC"
Print "DEF"
_Delay 1
Print "XXX"
_Delay 1
Cls
Screen 1
Print "ABC"
Print "DEF"
_Delay 1
Print "XXX"
_Delay 1
Cls
Screen 1
Print "ABC"
Print "DEF"
_Delay 1
Print "XXX"
_Delay 1
Cls
Screen 1
Print "ABC"
Print "DEF"
_Delay 1
Print "XXX"
_Delay 1
Cls
Screen 1
Print "ABC"
Print "DEF"
_Delay 1
Print "XXX"
_Delay 1
Cls
....



Make the issue a little more obvious now?
Ahah, gotit! Thanks Steve.
