While working on an upcoming Scriptee development post detailing the commands supported and usage, I discovered a fundamental problem with many of the commands and it relates to parsing. Right now, one could overrun the parameter token size! Yikes! Fixing that will be next on the agenda.

One of the two projects of Elite for #Atari8bit computers consists of two versions: one called AcornSoft, which is based on the BBC Micro disk version, and another called Firebird, which includes improvements that the author imagines Firebird would have made had it released an Atari version. The final version of the latter was released today https://forums.atariage.com/topic/393094-elite-for-the-atari-8-bit-firebird-version-has-been-completed-and-is-released/ #atari

Scriptee code cleanup and improvement led to extents checking on the POKE commands address value. Seen here testing one byte too high at 65536 - POKE is 0 based. Full blog post coming to explain and including more value checks in the proof.

Scriptee: Incorporated the new Load File routine. No loss in speed, AND unexpected bonus, it saved 300 bytes of binary code! Seen here testing RUN command. Getting close! I'll probably start user documentation this weekend.

You can translate this as "stone loach fish" all you want, but it looks like a green dragon to me. #Atari8bit

Tonight I re-wrote the file load routine Scriptee will use to load scripts. It's been on my list since the load routine was completed because it only supported SpartaDOS and RealDOS. The new routine doesn't lose any speed, and works across various DOS's for the Atari. Here are some routine checks validating files being read that are smaller than the buffer by 1 byte, the same size as the buffer, and larger than the buffer (which Scriptee will throw an error for).

Scriptee dev blog post 20 is published (oops, yesterday). It covers the new GOBXY command to goto a coordinate relative to a box frame.
