Mode Command not validating input

Question

Mode Command not validating input

MackW opened this issue a year ago · comments

Tested on a BBC (haven't tested on Z80 BBC Basic though)
the command
MODE 0'
changes mode and then throws a "Syntax Error"
on a BBC it throws the error without doing anything.
It looks like the basic is not validating the parameter correctly.

Just tested it on my Tatung Einstein and can confirm that this is correct behaviour for BBC BASIC for Z80. It would also be a bit of a pig to correct it.
