IMHO "because there's no reason not do do it" is not a good > reason. indeed. it may look like a good idea at first, but it would just introduce bloat to many programs. (i would personally even go one step further and remove the cleanup code alltogether and have the program loop infinitely or reset at exit like most other c64 programs do). and if you decide that you would like to restore this (and maybe more) variables, you can still link some own code to your programs easily and without much effort. gpz just for curiousity...what kind of tool/program is that what you think could nead such threatment? and why wouldnt you have it loop infinitely and provide an "exit" option rather than restarting it by "run"? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo_at_musoftware.de with the string "unsubscribe cc65" in the body(!) of the mail.
