I'm sorry. Misunderstood your posts. You are right. It is an error to add a space to the second string. I'll delete the misleading comment.

Maybe there are wrong phrases in the comment. I speak broken English. I tested 2 totally wrong line in msdos 5.0: if a == a There is no space between word `a' and end of line. Msdos prints syntax error message. if a == a There is 1 space between word `a' and end of line. Msdos prints nothing. Think …

I apologize.

Do not understand. Why? No matter. It is not relevant and commented out.

continuation + + // Check parameters + if (!*word || !*woord2 || (strcasecmp(word,"NOT")==0)) { + SyntaxError(); + return; + } + Probably this modification is unnecessary. It prints syntax error messages mainly. expression (!*word): set var= if == a echo true! result in msdos: syntax error message …

First, I have to apologize for my bad english. I think that `if' command patch on sf needs explanation. I am sorry if am in the wrong. The patch does not improve `if' command, has two goal: bug fix and error messages. It behaves like msdos and does not break any functionality (at least I think it). …

It works again after pressing ALT. Seems that ALT 'sticks' when invoking the GUI.

seems to work in ykhwong's build

The standard files are not redirected to the console. Patch is attached.

If the user closes the console window pressing ctrl-break or clicking the 'X' on the upper right corner dosbox crashes: dosbox.exe caused an Access Violation at location 6813fe30 in module SDL.dll Reading from location 127cf100. But dosbox exits normally when the console is closed pressing ctrl-c. …

I guess there is a bug in curses.h. The end of the header: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #endif /* __PDCURSES__ */ #if defined(__cplusplus) || defined(__cplusplus__) || defined(__CPLUSPLUS) # undef bool } #endif …

A very simple patch. Replaces the pdcurses specific Alt- keycodes with ESC character and the character itself.

Thanks for the answer. I found meanwhile solution. DOSBox uses escape sequences for ALT+D/E/S/X/B keys, pdcurses use key codes > 255. Modified debug.cpp, recompiled, now work.

The ALT+D/E/S/X/B keys do not work in Windows XP. I've compiled DOSBox with debug from cvs using mingw, gcc-g++-3.4.2, pdc28_ming_w32 (pre-compiled).
