I've just updated thinBasic_Oxygen :)
https://github.com/Charles-Pegge/OxygenBasic/blob/master/thinBasic_Oxygen.zip


@Eros
The included examples folder has a selection of scripts which belong in /thinBasic/SampleScripts/Oxygen/ . Unfortunately the scripts in this folder are nearly all broken and obsolete. I think they should be removed entirely and replaced by the current examples.

O2 now supports multidimensional arrays. To be compatible with thinBasic and PowerBasic it must use Column-major order for which there is a switch: #minormajor. Otherwise, the default is row-major as in C and FreeBasic: #majorminor





uses "oxygen"

I've introduced a new command: o2_run, which is a combination of o2_basic and o2_exec. It simplifies the script and reports any compile errors directly.

This is the above code using o2_run

Ciao Charles,

next week-end I will release a new thinBasic update.
I will insert your latest Oxygen Basic release.

Is it correct to take thinBasic_Oxygen.zip content for distribution for thinBasic?

Thanks
Eros

[Charles Pegge]

Yes Eros,

I include key examples. I've also included RTL32.inc and also RTL64.inc so you can create 32 and 64 bit binaries.

oxygen.dll has been brutally UPXed to 122kb

I've just posted another update, so use the latest :)
