Confusing Chr$ explanation
#35
It's not recommended to use FIX() to wrap a division. Do this instead:

Code: (Select All)
' Rounding down the TEXTfield to a Integer
  MAXwidth = _WIDTH \ _FONTWIDTH
  MAXheight = _HEIGHT \ _FONTHEIGHT

The larger "slash" key which is the directory separator in Windows, which in QBasic/QB64 is called "integer division".

There are other fonts that have that problem with displaying underscores and stuff like that. On Linux as well. While using Geany I had to change a font because of it, although it looked great for source code.

PRINT on the bottom-most line of SCREEN 0 should be avoided as much as possible and otherwise, use a trailing semicolon for anything used with PRINT.
