It's now up on the Swift page;

http://www.retrosoftware.co.uk/swift

with a supporting video, sorry no sound with this one due to the PC I was using. But I try and emphasize items by pointing with the mouse !

Basically there's a new project item type for text items. This was designed to allow easier creation of boot files and for keeping notes. However it can also be used to enter BASIC programs. The limitations are that the DFS name you give the file must be !BOOT, but the project name and project item name can be anything you wish. This is because it basically uses this file to "boot" your code into BeebEM.

You can see that the BASIC program must also start with the AUTO command, this simply gets the Beeb to convert your BASIC code as text to an actual BASIC program.

Once your program has been sent across to BeebEM just press escape and type RUN to run the program.

Have a look at the video and it will hopefully become more obvious !

Note you won't be able to use GOTOs or GOSUBs as you do not enter line numbers, but you shouldn't be using them anyway !

Again this is a Beta version, but version number moved to 3.1
