The code as written will have worked for me. The folder in the zip file will have worked perfectly when placed in the QB64PE folder.
Thank you for your appreciation of this old project. It was certainly very pleasing to work out the search methods (I was helped by @blus). InForm makes it look somewhat 'professional'.
Hi Richard
I have a strange experience with compiling Inform projects...
yeah it depends from where are the included files, if they are in the QB64pe.EXE folder all is ok, if the position is another one then the issue comes out!
I think so, because on my Kubuntu pc I have one folder for QB64pe, in this folder there are different folders: QB64pecodeFromForum, QB64pe410, QB64pe420, QB64pe430, Inform Master, Inform tutorial, MioQB64pe. Only in QB64pe420 I have installed InformPe following the structure that I posted above.
Well, I have built 2 different Inform examples to test the include files issue. The first project is in the QB64pe420 folder, the second project is in the QB64pe folder (the root folder). So I got these results opening the .BAS file both with QB64pe430 both using QB64pe420.

As you can see the error has been flagged by QB64pe430 where it has no Inform folder in its folder. So the path seems to be relative to the IDE's path and not to the file source path.
It is interesting to know what it happens in Windows if you make the same experiment.
