This might be the wrong place to ask but are there any plans to update the Stamp Manual to include the latest version of PBasic 2.5??

I realize that documentation is a pain in the.........

    Yes, the online help is always the quickest place to find help, but I too would appreciate having a manual backup.· Especially when I'm just drafting code without the PC...Yes, I do that...

    hbbpate,

    The BASIC Stamp Syntax and Reference Guide is in the final stages of being updated. It's undergoing final editing and formattign and we have about 60 hours of work left to do. Parallax will have an additional thousand hours of work into the manual when the new version is released (soon, we hope).

    Ken,

    I am glad to hear it !

    In this paperless society I still prefer the good old printed manual.

    I looked for days and wrote a lot of code trying to write a word to scratch memory only to discover (by asking on the Yahoo! forum) a function now exists for this.

    The help files are great but I just have not found the way to pencil in my notes on a help screen wink.gif
